    Default I've acquired some chisels. Need help IDing them

    I was at a friends house and swapped him some work for a few boxes of old tools. I actually didn't look in the boxes till I got home. The pics attached are of some I haven't seen before.

    Any ideas?

    The first one, I have no idea. Never seen a makers mark that is a wood screw. It looks like it's made in Sheffield

    Second one. I've seen that style makers mark before, but don't remember who it is.

    The last one has no makers mark, but I don't think it's user made.

    The middle one is a Marples; but I don't recognise the others.

    The first one is Charles Taylor’s “Screw” Brand.

    Not sure about No.3

    If it's lettering, it's not legible

    I'm starting to think it's a user made as the metal bolster looks crude and welded on. It's good steel and looks like it''ll make a good lathe chisel when I put an appropriate handle on it.
