Henry Disston & Sons No. 7 Hand
Saw
This circa 1900 Disston & Sons
Rip saw is marked 6 1/2ppi and has a very deep 26" blade that has its nib and is
quite straight. The Etch is about 80 percent complete and is readable. It is
smaller in area than most that you see. The blade is moderately tarnished, has
been cleaned, and has only one spot of fine pitting that would be covered by a
quarter. The beech handle has one tiny sliver from the top horn. Remnants of
the original label still may be seen around the medallion. The four bass
slotted saw screws include a medallion from the 1897-1918 period. It is a nice
user saw. Good+
