Freshly Sharpened Hand Saws - enjuneer - 11-30-2019 There is a nice assortment of freshly sharpened vintage hand saws available on my website, Loon Lake Tool Works. Holiday presents for your favorite woodworker??? RE: Freshly Sharpened Hand Saws - overland - 11-30-2019 Beautiful saws at a fair price. Here's a question: Where can one find instructions on how to eliminate kinks and bends in saws? I have a couple that I've abused and would like to try to straighten them. But I have no idea how. RE: Freshly Sharpened Hand Saws - cputnam - 11-30-2019 Quite drool worthy. RE: Freshly Sharpened Hand Saws - gtrboy77 - 11-30-2019 I’ve been told that you can remove small kinks by using a hammer and anvil (or something else underneath like a short section of railroad track, even a vise). RE: Freshly Sharpened Hand Saws - enjuneer - 11-30-2019 Here is an article that was written by Bob Smalser a few years ago. He describes how to remove bends with a hammer and anvil. I use a similar method, though with MUCH smaller hammers. Brute force is not necessary. There is also a brief article in an 1877 issue of Scientific American that describe how and where to strike hammer blows to remove different types of irregularities in the plate. In the end though, it takes practice. Start with some junk saws and keep working at it before hammering on your prized saws. RE: Freshly Sharpened Hand Saws - Admiral - 11-30-2019 That D-111 is a very nice saw and very reasonably priced. I'm tempted, but my till is overflowing...... RE: Freshly Sharpened Hand Saws - enjuneer - 12-03-2019 These saws are ready to go, though I have many more that are waiting for clean up and sharpening. Let me if you are looking for something in particular. My email address is LoonLakeToolWorks@gmail.com
