Hi all,
Long time lurker with maybe a few posts in my distant past.
I recently bought a fine crosscut panel saw (10pt) and upon receiving it, noticed that the 2nd tooth from the toe is broken. The rest of the teeth are newly sharpened and look as close to perfect as I’ve ever seen on an old saw. How likely is this to affect function (like grabbing when starting a cut)? I would still not be thrilled about a broken tooth mid-plate but would be less concerned about it affecting function and I have an opportunity to return it, but I need a saw too...
Thanks in advance for any insight.
Josh
