I'm a young man buying and selling in my off time and i recently picked this out of a thrift store and i was wondering if anyone knows anything about it?
It's still in very good condition and was in a paper cover. I've done a little bit of research and i would like to hear what you guys might know.

Howdy Andrew and welcome to the Creek.

Here is a site that will answer a lot of questions about Disston saws:

That is a pretty nice find. I would have likely ripped my pants getting my wallet out on that one.

I'm fairly new, too, so don't have any info to share. But that's a lovely looking saw. Congrats, and welcome to SMC!

Thank you guys for the lovely welcome. I was really lucky when i grabbed this, it was just kind of an out of place object which turned out to be a nice find. Thank you Jim for the information!

I don't know if this is allowed but would anyone be interested in purchasing this? I'm just trying to get rid of it and if someone would really value it im not looking for a full price. Maybe $100 CAD which i think would be fair

It is a nice saw. It would be beneficial to sharpen and set the teeth. If you haven't done that, you have an adventure coming. I'm sure you will enjoy it.
