Can anyone advise me on any auction houses which specialise in antique tools? I collect anything cast iron and vintage hand tools, such as lathes, planes and spirit levels. I am currently looking for a hammer from circa 1890, if anyone knows where there is one. Thanks.

Just google, auction houses Cumbria, and look at their sale catalogues.

There are also a number of them on Ebay.

Use by date stamped on it?
