RARE ANTIQUE 1896-1917 Disston & Sons 48" 1-2 Man Breasted CROSSCUT Logging SAW

Description: Offering an antique breasted H. Disston and Sons crosscut logging saw with a "H. Disston & Sons PHILADA" medallion, dating this saw to 1896-1917. It is being sold in as-found condition. The 12" handle allows it to be a one-man or two-man saw. Features: Length: 47-1/2" overall, 42-1/2" x 6-1/2" blade, 12" handle Rivets: 4 The saw is in great shape, with a straight blade. The blade has a black color/finish that has prevented any rusting, and it appears to be in outstanding condition. Please refer to the numerous pictures to assess its state for yourself. This would be an excellent restoration project. According to the Disstonian Institute website, Disston used this style of PHILADA medallion around 1896-1917 (see the last picture for more information), which is why I am dating it to that period. These findings are based on my research, but I encourage you to conduct your own to verify. The Disstonian Institute is an excellent resource for this. If I have any details wrong, please let me know, as I strive to accurately represent what I am selling. I have several other large crosscut logging saws and numerous antique hand saws available in my store, if interested. Fast shipping is available. Thanks for looking! Info on breasted saws: The teeth on many handsaws are set in a slightly convex arc instead of a flat plane, potentially to reduce friction as the teeth move through the wood. Some saws lack this breasting, and in some cases, it was removed during the refiling process. The breasting effect is quite noticeable on one- or two-man crosscut saws for felling trees. On hand saws, it is subtler, with the blade being wider by about the height of a saw tooth in the center. Backsaws were never breasted.
