Pig castrator. For him being dead for 30 years there sure isn't much rust or dust on stuff.

I noticed that too and asked the auctioneer (estate sales gentleman). He said the man that died was very meticulous about his tools. Everything had been wiped with oil and was clean. Most of the tags you see on the tools were written by the man that died. If someone gave him a tool, he notated when and from who. He also notated what some things were on the tags. I didn't see signs of rats/mice either. It was very clean considering the age.

I know many of those . It looks like my Dads accumulations in condition and volume . I can spend hours in his shop just soaking it all up. You’ve heard jack of all trades and master of none, my Dad is a master with them all . Shoes I could never hope to fill with his talent from master carpenter , electrician , plumbing , gun stock maker , fiddle restoration , forester , hunting , fishing. The list goes on and on. Two buildings full of hand tools , old and in perfect condition. Every woodworking tool / machine you could imagine along with plumbing, electrical fittings . Caning chair seats on and on. He’s an extremely rare breed even at 87. His name is Leon , a proud Old Kentuckian

The slick is the third tool from the left. It is about the size you describe. It doesn't have a handle.

Slicks come in a lot of different sizes. Seems the 2" is about the most common with guys I know who use them. Another tool I've wanted to have in my collection but most guys who have them used want a ton of money for them.

Great set of spoke shaves. I would love to have a couple of the different radius convex spokeshaves. You just don't see those around much any more....
