I have a set of stone mason's chisels with my grandfathers company name on 
them. No longer practical to use, they bring on wonderful memories. 

However, I have or rather my father got rid of the rest. 

Is it practical to keep a chest of tools that you will never use?  Is it 
more practical to keep a small set of them and to pass on these wonderful 
tools to someone else who will love them and use them?

If you decide to keep them, what will happen when you go that great tool 
place in the sky?

I belong to a list of hand tool users and collectors.  The topic has come up 
several times.....

Everyone has a different answer
