        I have an opportunity to purchase this plough gauge, and if you would be so kind as to relay any history that you aware of it would be appreciated. The plough is pictured with a Blanchard blade, however the makers mark Is a raised HUBER+ on the blade support.

       I also have a Portrait plough, and again thank you for your previous input on the Ges Lutz I received from you.

      I in addition wonder how difficult it will be to get the proper HUBER+ blade?IMG_1399.JPGIMG_1398.JPG

    Cheers Keith

         I got a short note from Walter he say's the plough was made in Germany by Meltzer & Feller and sold buy a Swiss company company called Huber & co. who have gone out of business.

      He also suggested that I contact Alan Rundell in Ausse to see if he would be able to add any information and perhaps track down a blade for it.

      Regards Keith

      Hi Keith

      Well, I waited 3 years to find a "pliers-belt cutter" for you.

      Nobody has appeared ... they have disappeared from the ground.

      But I can answer another question for you.

      This is what the Huber knives looked like for the Huber Plow-Gouge.

      Huber always sold Blanchard knives as well, but these were his originals ........

      These knives were probably made in the 70s ..... their shape was not as beautiful as it used to be, and the wood is stained brown ash.

       

      Greeting Walter
