Vintage 19th Century Disston no.7 Crosscut Handsaw.Acording to the Disstonian Institute, the number 7 was the first model sold by Henry Disston in 1840. That this saw with some updates, continued to be successfully marketed for over a century speaks to the high regard woodworkers had for this fine hand tool. Dated by its medallion, this no.7 was made around 1890, and is still a beautiful, fully functional saw. The blade is straight with no broken or missing teeth, and retains an intact nib. Width at the toe is 2 3/4 in. and 7 1/2 in. at the heel. The beech handle and medallion are in surprisingly beautiful condition. 26 in. cutting edge, 8 teeth per inch. As a prized collectible or workhorse in your shop, this saw would be hard to beat.
