    Default Assortment of old plane irons

    I bought a mixed bag of plane irons a while back and finally got around to cleaning them up. Most of them appear to be laminated steel

    D Kremendahl. I think the cap iron belongs to this one; there's no marking on it, but it's the only one that matches in width. I also have another Kremendahl iron with a different stamp.

    Something Iebotson & Co

    Anybody know anything about these makers and if any of these are worth anything as a collectible?
