Up for sale is a rare, highly collectible antique luthier's purfling marker and channel cutter manufactured by the iconic American toolmakers, Buck Brothers
(Millbury, MA). Based on the specialized design and the specific style of the maker's stamp, this piece dates to the late 19th or early 20th century (circa 1885-1915).
This premium specialty tool features a solid brass contoured body, an integrated edge guide/fence, and dual adjustable steel cutting blades secured by period-correct slotted adjustment screws. The highly sought-after "BUCK" maker's mark is stamped clearly on the side of the brass body, providing a crisp, legible mark of authenticity for collectors.
Perfect for active violin, viola, or guitar makers who prefer the unparalleled edge-holding quality of vintage American cast steel, or for discerning antique tool collectors looking for a rare, non-standard Buck Bros. edge tool.
Excellent vintage condition with a beautiful natural patina on the brass body. The "BUCK" stamp is sharp and completely legible. Adjustment screws turn as intended and the steel cutting blades are intact.
