    Screwdriver is a North Bros. No. 30A, 3 patent date( spring is bad) and the square has a "Winchester" Trade Mark Made in USA etch. That saw plate with the nib?

    8 point, WS medallion, yet has an etch..inside a banner is "SIMONDS SAW CO."
    No cracks in either handle, no bends nor kinks in the plates. Handles are a tad small for my hands...only getting 3 fingers in there...

    Not too bad of a morning....despite be a very breezy 50 degrees outside?
    Looks like i have some clean up to do..

    Steve, that ripsaw is a real beauty – I'm thinking maybe English or may be one of the smaller US manufacturers like Harvey Peace Vulcan Saw Works?

    Best, Mike

    And, spent a quarter on a bag of screws...
