Reviews
"It is an absolute pleasure to visit this shop, so much to look at and discover new tools. Mike is a wealth of knowledge which he is very open to pass on. Not only will you find tools your grandfather likely used but the new saws and block planes, if you're lucky to see, if they haven't been sold, are almost pieces of art made by true craftsmen. If you really value good tools and want proven products, it's worth the visit. I will go there everytime I visit Melbourne."
"Good selection of quality vintage and hard to find tools at reasonable prices. Have bought from VTS a few times, because their tools are so well presented. It is a sign of pride in what they do."
"What a unique shop. Browsing brought back so many memories. If you are after any hand tool of age I would thoroughly recommend. All saws appear to have been sharpened. If you are after something for the woodworker as a gift, well worth checking out. They also make saws to order but be prepared to wait . There is a long back order. After checking out the saws they make we could see why. They were extremely well made and fitted the hand beautifully ."
"I found Vintage tools after searching high and low for a traditional Coticule stone to use on my finest and hardest blades. From the moment I walked in Mike and Mari were absolutely fantastic. A friendly vibe yet with a deep knowledge and passion for everything tools, sharp things and everything else. Mike parted with one of his amazing stones and it’s a game changer for ability to create a fast yet superb edge with plenty of retention. I keep going back as I truly love not just the huge product range but the pleasurable experience and genuine hospitality provided by this lovely duo. I highly recommend Vintage Tool Shop and Mike and Mari get my 10 out of 10."
"Had a great time looking through all the antique tools and hearing the history of where they came from. The owners were super friendly and welcoming too. Highly recommend seeing this place! Will be back soon to pick up some more chisels!"
