ANTIQUE (WWII ERA) JAPANESE SUGAR CANE SCYTHE ( Item # 42989 )

TODAY WE'RE FEATURING THIS ANTIQUE (WWII ERA) JAPANESE SUGAR CANE SCYTHE. THIS WAS BROUGHT BACK FROM JAPAN BY A RETURNING AMERICAN SOLDIER.
THIS SCYTHE MEASURES APPROXIMATELY 17" IN HEIGHT WITH A SLIGHTLY CURVED BLADE WHICH ITSELF MEASURES NEARLY 7" IN LENGTH. THE BLADE IS MOUNTED ATOP A 14" WOODEN HANDLE WHICH HAS A ROPE AT THE BASE SO THIS MAY BE HUNG ON A PEG OR NAIL.
THE BLADE IS PROBABLY COMPOSED OF HIGH CARBON STEEL AND HAS RUSTED AS ONE WOULD EXPECT DUE TO IT'S AGE. THERE ARE 4 JAPANESE CHARACTERS IMPRINTED ON ONE SIDE OF THE BLADE. THERE IS ALSO THE NUMBER "230" IMPRINTED AS WELL.
A CLASSIC PIECE OF JAPANESE TOOLING!

Stanley Tape Measure ( Item # 23155 )

This Stanley tape measure is in very good condition. It has No. 6386 Direct Reading on one side and on the other the patent pending numbers 1964280 and 1983503, and the words Made in U.S.A. The tape has to be pushed in to the frame as it does not retract automatically.

Vintage Norton Abrasive Stone In Leather Case ( Item # 43691 )

This is an unused abrasive stone stamped NORTON. It is in a leather advertising case which is marked "NORTON World's Largest Manufacturer of Abrasive Products; Norton Company, Worcester MASS., U.S.A.". This would date it before 1964 (zip codes began on July 1, 1963). The stone measures 3 3/4" x 3/4"; the case measures 4 1/4" x 5/8". Other than the very slight wear on the case printing, it is in very good condition.
