I just received this beautiful "Disston and Son" No. 7 and it is awesome! It dates back to 1865-1872. It is known as a "one son" saw as it has a plate and medallion that says "Henry Disston and Son" before it became "and sons". Thanks to Enjuneer (Bob) for doing such an amazing job on the sharpening and the clean up! It not only cuts great, but it is awesome to own such a beautiful piece of history. I just had to show it off

That is an awesome saw! Nice rehab on the saw as well. Andy
I am quickly realizing that I have NO natural talent... But I am trying to fake it.

Beautiful saw that's been well restored. Should be good for another 125 years!
