Some nice woodworking tools there, whoever had them probably cherished them . A folding rule has many benefits over a standard rule but you must know how to use them. They were the standard for Carpenters back in the day
The draw knives are what I’m most excited about after the Starrett combination square of course! The square will go into my collection though, and the draw knives will be placed back into service.
I’m curious if the Starrett square is a carpenters square. Lufkin had a combo square that was numbered 65 and marketed as a “universal” square for woodworkers. Rabone is(was?) an English company.
Always a good time! Thanks!

I’ll definitely look through my catalogs to check, though I don’t have that many of them and the ones I do have aren’t super old.
Engagement!
