I ran into a fellow who has an Atkins No. 93 hand saw. The saw is in as-found condition so I can't say what specific condition it was in it looked in pretty good shape. The tote and blade seemed undamaged, the medallion and all the bolts were there but the saw plate was utterly black so I couldn't see any sign of an etch. I suppose if one were to get one of these saws sharpened today one would need to send it to a hand sharpener, I'm guessing that saw sharpening machines aren't set up to handle this tooth configuration.

I'm wondering how well did these saws worked? I'm also curious to know if someone is able to say within very broad parameters what these saws may be worth on the used tool market?
