Value of a few tools

[Garth Almgren]

Hello all,
I'm fairly new to the neander scene but I figure there is always room for more human powered tools to my shop.

I recently picked up some tools from a friend who was helping a friend of theirs clear out their father's storage units after he passed away. The guy had been a general contractor before retiring about 20 years ago, and unbeknownst to his children had multiple large storage units full of tools, hardware, and other assorted junk. As payment for helping them clean out the storage units my friend got several pickup truck loads of tools, and I got first pick before he put them up on Craigslist.

Here's some of what I picked up, and I'm hoping that you all might help me to put a (very rough) value on these. My friend isn't giving them to me for free but will give me a serious discount off of what I think is fair market value. I'm NOT selling them, so hopefully this type of post is OK in here.


A big Wilton 10x4 woodworking vise with about 12" of travel:

Needs a lot of cleaning and a good coat of paint, but it's really solid. (Now I need a decent bench to hang it from!) I'm not anywhere close to knowing what it's worth. I see Wilton vises on eBay going for anywhere from $40 to $250, though most aren't in as rough shape as this one. I haven't been able to find so much as a picture of one that looks similar to this one (casting and font), so I'm wondering if it's one of their really early models.

A Craftsman #7C equivalent from the 50s (?), possibly made by Sargent. This one is probably in the worst shape in terms of rust, and I may not end up restoring it unless it is super rare (doubtful):

$20?

Three block planes (two 60½ and one 9½) in decent usable condition, though the black 60½ will need a new iron soon since it's almost worn out:

I figure $15-$20 each? Also, has anybody seen a 9½ like this before with a knob holding on the lever cap (that doesn't have a lever)? Under the knob it doesn't even have a keyhole like I'd expect to see, just a round hole for the stud that the knob screws into to poke through. Common, uncommon? Most of the ones I've seen on Google Images have the usual keyhole and machine screw.

And a couple more #4 and #5 Stanleys, both type 16 as far as I can tell:

$30 each?

Those planes are sitting on top of a box set of Irwin augers from 1961, identical to this one (including the instruction booklet, but missing the 7/8" bit):

These are also all over the place on eBay, lowest I saw was $20, and as high as $140, so I have no idea.


Any help would be greatly appreciated! Let me know if you want more pics, different angles, closeups, that kind of thing.
