Olive - KlausK. - 05-07-2015
Hi Netters,
after a long brake due to some allergy issues I'm back in saw making together with Pedder again. Currently it's only possible to me to work with ebony and olive without having reactions. I'm happy enough being able to continue the handle making on this limited base. Better than nothing after all. The downside is, that both timbers are not that easy to get.
Today I want to show a little carcase saw, that was made for a customer with large hands, large with capitals
It's a 12" saw with the blade depth of about 1 3/4" and the pitch of 18 tpi crosscut.
This saw while made for a carpenter won't see much use. He want's to display it in his office. So a little saw stand was made out of the same piece of olive as the handle. 2 rare earth magnets hold the saw.
Thanks for looking.
Klaus

Is this saw for sale?
Re: Olive - KlausK. - 05-07-2015
Nope, it's custom made for a carpenter.

Beautiful handle Klaus, and I think that the Olive wood is very beautiful and that there is no need to apologise for it.

Another beauty. And welcome back to the craft!

Beautiful to look at, that wood has a voice. No doubt a pleasure to use as well.

Lovely.
Would look even better against a different color backdrop, though.

Beautiful looking saw and am glad you and Pedder are able to start making saws again.
Thanks for sharing !
