Kingshott tools stolen
Russ Allen- Chicago
>Hello Everyone,
I received this email for Jim Kingshott's grandson:
Dear Sir,
I was hoping that you could please keep an eye open, and also let anyone
in the trade know that a large selection of japanese chisels, saws and
planes as well as a set of Robert Sorby Bevel Edged Chisels, a handmade
Chariot plane, block planes, Clifton Spokeshaves, Western saws mainly
Disston and the old style Roberts and Lee, they will have a stamp on
them saying KINGSHOTT or R.J.KINGSHOTT if you do come into contact with
anything with those stamps on them I would be most grateful if you could
let me know as a large selection of my tools and inherited ones where
stolen on the 7th January out of my tool chest they were taken in the
mahogany drawer units from inside the chest so these may also come up.
I am willing to pay for the return of any that come up. These will be
very unusual due to the Kingshott stamp, and high quality of the tools.
I would be most grateful due as these are tools I built up with the help
of my Grandfather and have great meaning as well as the use I had with him.
Many thanks
Allan Kingshott
(Grandson of Jim Kingshott)
