Hand saws…
StaticLV2 posted a topic in Hand Tools,
So the good thing that came out of my trip to Ohio was getting to poke around and find a few antique Disston saws.
Started working on the oldest of them today. This is a 26”, 7 TPI Curved-Back saw. The curve is similar to a D-8 but the blade isn’t as tall.
Saw is cleaned, straightened, and tensioned. Waiting on files and a set tool to finish this up and put it back into use.
