Three wooden hand planes on a bench

The Largest Source for Vintage & Antique Woodworking Tools

Many woodworkers love to buy used, vintage and antique woodworking tools for sale online. 

American Writer, Wallace D. Wattles wrote “It is essential to have good tools, but it is also essential that the tools should be used in the right way.”

I’ve always felt this to be true. And as much as I enjoy ogling, buying and using new tools, I always find in my own work that it isn’t the fanciest, most expensive tools that I turn to; It is the ones that I can rely on. The tools that feel comfortable in my hand. Those tools that I’ve used so much that I know just how to lean on them to correct for a minor imperfection, or to finesse a finish just so.

It’s the tools passed on from ones parent or grandparent that bare the marks of decades of loving use that make the craft of woodworking so satisfying.

Working with Hand Tools: Essential Techniques for Woodworking
Learn how to put those beautiful old tools to use: ‘Working with Hand Tools: Essential Techniques for Woodworking’

It’s getting harder to find these types of tools for many of us. Recent generations are less inclined to take up ‘hands on’ hobbies. People rely more on outsourced labor for general repairs and renovations around the house. It may be a bit of a dying craft. But there is still a strong culture for the love of woodworking, and making things with your hands.

These people know the value of a well engineered, well crafted tool; A nicely weighted smoothing plane with soft edges and a razor-sharp blade, finely tuned to produce wispy shavings that almost float through the air.

Looking to up your Power Tool Game: Can a Track Saw Replace a Jointer?

Thankfully, over the past couple decades an army of enthusiasts have amassed an amazing collection of used, antique and collectible woodworking tools and have taken to the internet to share them with the woodworking community. Tools on offer range from planes, saws, chisels, measuring and marking devices to specialized tools for timber framing, coopering, coach building and more. I have scoured the internet and compiled a list of all the online dealers I could find, and offer it here for you, to find that special tool to fill out your hanging wall cabinet.

I have done my best to represent each dealer fairly and accurately, and to dig up as many small shops around the English speaking world I could find. But If I have missed a great shop, or I have somehow misrepresented something, please let me know by email: toolsandtutorials@gmail.com and I will do my best to add or correct promptly.

Stanley Woodworking Tools: The Finest Years
Read up on one of the pioneers of woodworking tools: ‘Stanley Woodworking Tools: The Finest Years’

This list focuses on Woodworking hand tools. Some of the dealers offer a much wider rang of tools, but I have kept my focus on woodworking to avoid getting too far off track. These are simply in alphabetical order.

I have made a brief summary of the types of tools each dealer offers, and a rough estimate of their level of inventory. For reference, this ranges from a couple dozen tools, to hundreds if not thousands for some dealers.

Location is noted as some also operate store fronts or offer local pickup, but almost all offer international shipping so don’t be turned off by a dealer ‘across the pond’.

Welcome to my web page.  Among other things it offers a fairly extensive list of user and collector-grade woodworking and machinist’s hand tools.  My interest in woodworking has been long standing, since first buying a new Stanley jack plane in 1965.  That interest intensified over the last fifteen years, and for the last ten I’ve haunted flea markets and auctions, buying far more tools than I can use.  But the history of these items fascinates me, and the enjoyment of finding a tool, and then learning as much about it as possible, is ever consuming. ‘
