This may also be referred to as a Carnival Mallet.

You’re south of Seattle right SP? Did you get the 1 of 50 first undercutters? He said he sold it to someone south of Seattle...Those must have come from Larry up in Blaine.
Oh. Maybe that was S survivor45You’re south of Seattle right SP? Did you get the 1 of 50 first undercutters? He said he sold it to someone south of Seattle...

Ahh. I would like to discover where it is.. I’ve got another part of that story.I didn't get it.
Looks inferior in design and workmanship to the Vaughan. Wonder about the price?
Some recent cleanups.

I found a new honey hole this week but barely had any time to pick it. A fellow carpenter and tool collector passed a few years back. His widow is just now starting to sell his tools and she invited me to have a look. I took some photos and picked a few things but the rest will have to wait a week or two until I have some more time. Here's a preview.
From all that this is all I grabbed on this first quick round.
The drawknife on the left is a 10" Greenlee. The short drawknife and screwdriver are Pextos. The little ice hatchet is a Stattsburg (Bodenstein). I'm not a hand planes collector but I might grab 1 or 2 anyway. There's was just too much to take in all in so fast. I'll allow myself an hour or 2 next time and bring more cash.
The ice axe is a Washington pattern. This catalog page has been posted here before in the ice axe thread.
That come-a-long looks pretty beefy! I haven't seen one quite like that before. All of that stuff seems like it's in great shape so that's cool. Do you have first refusal on the contents of that garage or something?I went back Sunday and grabbed a few more things. I still barely scratched the surface of what's there. Here's what I brought home.
A pair of 42" pony clamps with 'Mastadon' jaw extenders on them. Disston 30" docking saw. Unmarked corner brace that I think might be early because it uses a universal instead of gears to turn the corner in the drive. Stanley 984 corner brace. Miller Falls egg beater. Stanley 67 universal shave hidden behind the egg beater handle. Sargent 4" draw knife. The plow plane is a Ohio Tool Co. A.H. Gage model. Behind that is a Starrett swivel head scraper. In back left is a pair of Jorgensen hold downs. Cheap pair of HF locking hold downs. Little Mule puller - pretty heavy duty. And at far right a NOS Crescent slide-hammer nail puller.
Here's a couple more pictures of the plow plane.
