That knife collection thread got me thinking. What do you collect, besides cigars, for fun. I like antique tools, books, and antique tractors, and Jeeps. The tractors are my latest kick, I have 4 of them, a 1949 Farmall A, a 1952 Farmall Cub, a 1949 Farmall Cub, and a 1946 Oliver. So, What do you collect?

By antique tools, do you mean "hand tools"? I've got a couple that I saved from when I cleaned out my grandmothers house. They're not in great shape, but they are old so I decided to keep them. One is a wood handled plumbers wrench and the other is a wood handled screwdriver. Let me know if you're interested and I'll hang a pic.

I've got a bunch of these myself. When I first came in you never went to a bar without one (or you ended up buying). That's sort of died off now. I haven't been "coined" in a long time. Ahhh....another of the old traditions dies.

Hand tools. Mostly wood working tools. When we bought this house(built in 1924), I found an old chest full of old woodworking tools. Planes, hurdy gurdy's, etc.

This is so true, but it still happens at different functions. Rest assured...I carry mine where ever I go.

I have collected key chains since I was young and also have a good assortment of baseball, basketball and football trading cards.
