    Now if you'd said Berg, Taylor, Sorby, Swan, Titan, Marples, Ward, Mathieson, or Law, the following picture would have been a lot nicer...

    Not what you are after I'm guessing, and definitely not on the collectable list yet but here we go, these are mine:

    I do own one, I use it for digging out broken off nails and all those butcherous tasks.

    Maybe not too many of us own Stanley vintage chisels.
    There was a thread some time back on Show off your chisels.
    There could very well be some Stanleys amongst them.
    See:
    https://www.woodworkforums.com/showth...t=show+chisels
    They also come up in this tutorial by Bob Smalser:

    As you can see there are many fine chisels besides the Stanleys, and the Stanleys appear to be less common in Australia than they are in the US where they seem to fetch very high prices.

    Hi Scribbly Gum.

    Thankyou for your feedback. Your right about the Stanley Chisels. They are difficult to purchase' and at a reasonable price. Even on Ebay/U.S.A..Stanley # 750 & # 720 chisels are really, really, popular by collectors. Condition as always governs the final price.

    I have a quantity of # 750s in very good condition. Will take some photo's.
