You definitely did that saw, and its history, proud. I love the classic shape and style.
Please continue with your saw postings. I think many more people here appreciate them than just the ones who comment. Your work is top shelf.

Hi Daryl,

Cheers
Pedder

Wonderful saw, really!
It's funny how small changes in the curves can make the difference between a cute handle and a stunning one. Something similar with sport cars and... women!
Ciao e grazie, Leo.

aye, and if they don't like beautiful tools (well, it is), then let them go elsewhere and complain...

Imagine the guy that bought that new. How long did he save to buy it? Was he a farmer, builder, or banker? How many owned it? Why did they sell it or perhaps hand it down and how many times? How did it survive all these years?
Were those handmade or machine made or a little of both? What did they sell for?
130+ years.

I think of the same questions when looking at many vintage tools. I guess those thoughts come with age, of both the tool and the observer.
