I have a D-12 Lightweight 5.5 psi rip saw from the late 40s early 50s that has a weird tooth issue. 95% of the plate has properly-spaced teeth, but the front 10% (by the toe) is about 8 ppi. I can't figure out how this would happen even with poor sharpening. Anyone have any ideas? I don't want to grind them off and recut all the teeth, so I may just sharpen them with added rake angle for easy starting or something. Not sure. Any input is appreciated.
