2101 brace, my first

> ... Anyone else have these?

I have one. Mine is an 8" swing. --- got it for $18. Most old braces
sell for $17 - $22. Then again, I still have the brace I used in
construction in 1953.

I don't know anything about that model. Where was it mentioned?

I've a Miller's Falls, 1911 patent, #34. 6" swing - $25 or so from eBay,
IIRC. Cute little bugger with rosewood grip and knob. Cool sound these
braces, no?
