It will not matter any more, but I don't want my wife to have to deal with it.
A simple inventory would allow her to know how to dispose of them and not worry about it.
OBTW, I am in good health and don't expect to depart any time soon.

It would take me at least a year to inventory tools, if I didn't have anything else to do. I haven't stopped buying tools for 45 years. Then there is also the lifetime collection of a machinist friend that left them to me. I haven't even moved that stuff here yet. I don't consider them an investment, but use them for income producing work.
I asked my Wife if she would like for me to stop working, and inventory tools, or keep making money. She said the inventory can wait.
I bought my tools for me to use and enjoy. They will go to my daughter and SIL. Many have already gone. They know that most all I have is the good stuff. The tools will be theirs to do what they please. I won't be worrying about the tools anymore. No sharpening, rust protecting loosing or any of that. I'll have a new set of the best that never dulls, rusts or gets lost and have every tool I need or ever needed right there when I need it. I'll also have an endless supply of the best materials.
