    Hi Tricia,
    Nice collection of basic hand tools in good condition. Still quite usable around the house, however I don't see any with significant value. Just enjoy using them!

    I like the twisted handle on the iron piece - Maybe a large awl or broach tool? And could be hand made. The small sickle would also go along with a hockey mask - LOL! :)

    Just thinking - if by chance your Dad made that twisted handle tool I would save that for sure and make some kind of display to hang on the wall - Sorry for your loss!!!!!!! My Dad died 11 months ago - still tough to handle!

    Nice you are making a collection display. :)
    In case the label on the saw is illegible, it is
    The Simonds Saw Brand.

    The screwdriver is a 'Perfect Handle' or at least a PH-style tool. These have collector value.

    The twist handled poker tool is a pretty nice piece, probably blacksmith-made.

    We sell those sickles in the shop (for just a few dollars) tagged 'weed-eater.' They always sell quickly.
