    I haven't found a match for the bolt pattern on the handle...I also had to replce one bolt..

    Yep, that bolt. Medallion has an Eagle and is a Warranted Superior.
    Might be a nice Tool Box Saw.....at 5-1/2ppi.

    Nothing by Disston is a match.....?

    Could be anyone Steve, there are as many unidentified WS saws as there are stars in the sky...

    De-rust the saw plate, polish the brasses, and make a new handle out of curly maple and they will look like some of my old saws.

    My saws are sharp and cut true.

    Plate has been derusted, brass is shined up, including the replacement bolt. I REPAIRED the handle. Saw is already quite sharp...might take 10 minutes to freshen the teeth up.

    At one time, this might have been a fairly long saw...one day, someone may have kinked it, and decided to remove the kink. Nice little toolbox size now. Might just keep it around.

    I have a short saw. It came to me with a pointed end with a broken handle. I cut the point off, made a new handle, and it is a fairly decent saw now.
