Antique 1800s Rusty Forged Iron Wood Splitting Froe Carpentry Shingle Tool DUG



- Dug items can be hard to date, but I believe this is from the 1800s and this would have had a wood handle at one point and it is tapered to have an edge, and I think it was a carpentry/woodworking tool, but please view the photos to determine the age and what it was used for, for yourself.



- These relics have been found with a metal detector in Connecticut, and therefore are in "dug", usually rusty, condition.  When I have found these items, I only brushed off the dirt, and leave them as is, and if you would like to do any further restoration/cleaning of these items it is up to you.



Size: refer to the tape measure in the photos for sizing.



Since the condition of an item is based on a person's opinion, please view all the photos carefully to determine the condition for yourself.  The color of an item/s may appear different in person due to the lighting in the photographs.  Any measurements of an item/s I provide are always approximations, due to rounding as well as other factors.  I NEVER use stock photos, so what you see in the photos, is the exact item/s you are buying.  If a ruler, tape measure, or coin (unless a coin is what is for sale in the description) is used in any of the photos, it is for sizing purposes only and not included.  My family and I are all non-smokers, so the items I sell have been in a non-smoking environment the entire time I've owned them.



I usually will ship same or next business day after receiving the payment.  Feel free to message me with any questions or concerns before buying, and I'll respond as soon as I can.  Thanks for looking, and I will gladly combined shipping costs to save you money, so feel free to check out my other auctions for something you'd like to purchase for yourself, or as a gift.  Happy Buying! :)
