It's always nice to fine Bonney tools. That New Britain ratchet will clean up nicely if you take the time to polish it. I picked up a New Britain made Champion Plug Master ratchet that was all rusted and seized at a flea market. I got it freed up and it actually cleaned up quite nicely. I love the old New Britain made tools.
Thanks! We launched them on Mercari and the link is in the latest “whats sold” video. I may change that over to ebay or another platform soon because I’m not that happy with their platform
Try to get some clean motor oil in that craftsman ratchet. It sometimes breaks free some of that build up without tearing it down. The oil will push its way back out with some gunk in it. Just keep rotating it and adding oil.
That is a Craftsman all steel wood chisel and those Kraeuter's are 6" spring loaded needle nose pliers with end nippers (very cool). The older tools are often much higher quality than the equivalent new stuff.
The Bonney soft face hammer looks like it is the universal size replaceable soft faces. Nupla may be the manufacturer. I have had Nupla, Craftsman, Proto, Bluepoint, and I think, others with this version of faces. I bought one NIB old stock about 6 weeks ago. That had about 5 or 6 different faces. I gave it away to a grandson, and I can't recall what it was branded. Some of that style Nupla was dead blow. The extremely thin fiber glass handle reminds me of my first Nupla dead blow. It is very thin, too thin. I purchased mine around 1982, and I snapped the handle at the head pretty quickly. I drilled out the broken handle and epoxied it in now shorter. It was always unbalanced after that, so I went the Snap-On deadblow route after that. The end nippers that don't close are probably tile cutters. When mosaic ceramic tile was popular, the nippers had carbide jaws and didn't fully fully close. The small tiles would snap or crack unter the cutter pressure without having to fully close. I have a different brand, but I haven't used mine since the late 1970's.
Bonney! That Kraeuter is super cool. You always find great tools.
Thanks Rob! I was really happy to find the Kraeuter!
Another cool tool haul. I like that Bonnie PF54 hammer.
Thanks! It is pretty cool!
Hey Kurt you guys found a lot of great tools! Love the Kraeuter and the Proto wrenches!
Thanks! This was one of the last flea market hauls I made back in November. Take care man!
Hey Kurt! Always nice to see a Made in USA haul. Love the Kraeuter, & Bonney 👍
Thanks! It was a good haul!

It cleaned up ok, the ratchet mechanism itself works excellent!
Nice haul again, I like the Marple wood chisel
I don’t see them often but when I do I gotta grab them!
Like the chisels, I was lucky enough to find a set of Marple recently, (not Vintage) nice haul.
Thanks Dale! The marples are really nice tools!
Happy new year you guys‼️👍👍
Happy New Year to you too!
The Bell System pliers from Sweden are cool
Definitely a nice find!
Kurt! Still waiting to get my hands on some Nk Garage T shirts! Hope you had good holidays and a great new year!

Thanks for the tip!

You’re right, it’s amazing the quality in tools from back then!
Be on the lookout for Tonka Toys, especially sets from the fifties, all metal of course, not the silly looking plastic ones from today.
Always on the lookout for those!
Cee-Tee were the best pair of farmer pliers ever made.
They are definitely heavy duty
It’s a shame they have gone to etching their branding that disappears. Klein markings disappear in about a month.
Yea It must be cheaper to manufacture that way but it doesnt last
Terrible filming at the beginning. Better half way through.
Thanks for watching!
@@thenkgarageI think Nick does a good job. He doesn’t yo yo the close ups and make you sick. 👍
Nick does a great job filming
