Road trip, but the "Boss" would allow only one stop, nose was a-twitching going past one place......enough so we just HAD to turn around..

Pile of JUNKY saw-like objects on the table.....but wait, there is something under all that junk

pulled this out, gave the guy a dollar bill and left ( well, also spent $2 on a garden hose for the Boss) with a saw. It needed two saw bolts, which I had in the shop. It will need a day's worth (maybe) of clean up. Saw is 22" long, by 4" deep at the handle. Straight as can be, and still fairly sharp. Handle was a bit fancy

Might need a refinish? The medallion says it is a "Pennsylvannia Saw Corp." saw. Disston, maybe? Plan is to clean this up, refinish the handle, and put it to work for awhile, giving my 22" Craftsman saw a break.
For just one yard sale stop, wasn't too bad a day?:D

Don't you just hate those "only one stop" restrictions?

Kept pointing them sales out all the way today, she never budged. DRAT.

Saw has been cleaned up, though

Handle refinished and a coat and wipe of BLO. Bolts shined up. As for the saw this one might replace?

Also a 22" saw, or so it says. This one came with the mitrebox.

Medallion does have a few extra words on it, something about " YORK PA." where the Disston keystone usually goes.
