>Every once in a while, I think I should sell my chisel of this pattern. It's not a Stanley Everlast, but Todd thought it might have been made by the company that Stanley bought so they could use the idea.

If this is what they're going for...

>It's a 40 or 50 -- probably type 3 maybe a type 2 ... dates to the early 20's and worth maybe 30-40$ max, in that condition maybe only 25-30.. definently not 200$ ... but it's worth what you can get someone to pay for it they say....

>Last year I saw a couple heavyweights bang heads over four Everlasts in much nicer shape. Each one landed two of them for over five hunert' each. In case you didn't add that up....that's over two thousand dollars for four chisels. I e-mailed one of the guys asking him what he planned to do with his chisels and commented that his wife must be very understanding.... I got a response in the affirmative for users...DOH!....and a plea to support a certain type of marriage...Yikes!
