Yard sale find the other day.

Spent a whopping dollar bill for it.
Has ATKINS No 50 stamped DEEP into the top part. Blade was even sharp.

Tried to look this saw up, I only found a Popular Mechanic's 1930 ad from Atkins.
On the non handle end, there is a spring clip at the notches where the blade is attached at. The kind the need a special pair of pliers to remove or install. Very little rust, zero pitting, might be a keeper?

Try it out. Decide if you like it. Keep it or not.

My best coping saw, so far, came with no brand name on it at all.

Looks awesome to me. I had to pay $20 for mine from amazon... Doesn't give me any warm fuzzies when I use it... I would trade you in a heartbeat...
