I was stunned to discover how old this saw was!
This tool is still incredibly solid and in good condition age considered.
The embedded medallion inside the wooden handle reads: DISSTON PHILA (made in
Philadelphia)
The total measurement of the saw is 29"
The blade measures 26"
Condition: There is a significant chip on the wooden handle, age discoloration
and wear. Please see all of my photos.
The blade is still securely mounted into the handle.
Well, by golly, this tool could still function!
But I think he deserves to retire at his age and be admired as a piece of art
mounted to the wall of your cabin, farmhouse or industrial style loft.
