Before the machine age, all woodworking was done with hand tools, and an amazing variety of tools evolved for a wide range of tasks. Even today, with machinery available for most woodworking operations, some tasks are more easily and effectively accomplished by hand. Many of these tools are as elegant as they are ingenious, and Classic Hand Tools celebrates their rich heritage in word and picture.

Both beautiful and practical, Classic Hand Tools reveals the rich variety and history of hand tools through vivid color photos while providing in-depth information on how to integrate their use into modern woodworking. With this book as a guide, anyone who works with wood will discover how to use these tools, how to choose the right ones for the job, and how to tune them up properly. Along the way, the reader will discover the benefits of using hand tools – less dust and dirt, more quiet, and, surprisingly, more efficient.
