I have some old, old woodworking tools that belonged to my grandfather...and possibly my great grandfather since grandpa took over the family farm. We also have a couple quite old butter churns as well as several antique cooking utensils.
The coolest thing is a scythe that surely belonged to my great grandfather and would make the grim reaper proud. It's longer than I am tall with a well-worn wooden handle and a fair amount of rust. It's an odd thing to have around but is pretty cool anyway.
