Disston & Sons #8 12" Half-Back Saw The overall
condition is very nice. The etch is still visible, and it is straight. No
pitting or rust to speak of.
The handle is damage free and very nice.Any Disston Half-Back saw is pretty rare and a very hard to find saw. This one having a 12" blade makes it doubly so. All of the info I found online about Disston Half Back saws says it does not exist in this 12" size and that 14" was the smallest offered. There was an article in a MWTCA Gristmill a while back by saw collector / researcher Phil Baker that indicated he had one this size and that it is overall smaller in scale than the 14" or others. Not having one of those, I am not sure about that. Who wants something few others have? Opportunity knocks!!!
Fine. . . . . $650.00 SOLD!!

mounted hacksaw is a nice tool that is well made and a quality product. It

small production shop where repetitive cuts are needed. No more jumping out
of the cut or bouncing around when trying to start one.

w/ Split Nuts
The overall condition is nice. The 18" blade is straight
end to end. It tapers from end to end and is about 4 1/2 at
the heel and 3 3/4 at the toe. I
see no etch and you can only make out a few letters of the name on the
top bar. (see pic) Looking down the tooth line they are not all at
the same height. It will need to be re-sharpened. Note the distinctive handle shape with the bottom squared
off. I believe it is factory. I do not recognize the maker. Different!!

Henry
Disston & Son 16" No. 77 "Mechanics Own" No Set Back Saw The
condition of this rare #77 No Set Disston & Son Back Saw is as nice as you will ever find
or see. Let's call it FINE to get that out of the way. The etch is
clear and bold. There is some staining as seen. There is no
rust or pitting to speak of. It is straight.
The handle is damage free and very nice. Note that it is a Disston & Son,
which would mean it was one of the earliest versions of this saw. I read these saws were filed differently from normal backsaws, and this one sure fits that description. I spoke to several saw-savy people and heard several different opinions. I have provided a number of photos so you can decide for yourself. Bottom line is that this is such a rare saw I do not think most would know what is or isn't "right" or original. I do not. That is why I have provided all the pics. As with the rare # 8 half back I have listed above, the real question here is, who wants something few others have? Opportunity knocks!!!
Fine. . . . . $600.00 SOLD!!
Early Disston
Dome Nut 12" Backsaw
This unusual early Disston backsaw is pretty nice. The blade is straight and has a
lot of depth left. There is some minor pitting that can be worked
around if it is to be put back into use. The teeth look ok and there
are no broken ones, but it will need to be sharpened.The brass back in addition to the Disston & Eagle logo is stamped spring steel / extra temper as well as the Phila. Pa location below the Federal Eagle. The fruitwood handle is solid with just minor slivers / chips off the horns. The threaded stud for the large dome nut where one would expect to see a stamped medallion is broken off and the dome nut on the back side is missing.
A note about the style of high dome nuts this saw has. Cresson, an early Philadelphia PA saw maker used this style nut before Disston bought them out around 1860. According to the Disstonian Institute, a website about Disston Saws and their history, Disston used this style nut on their handsaws in the 1860's - 1870's. I found no reference or illustrations there about their use on back saws. Given that the brass back is marked simply Disston and that this logo predates the use of the Disston and Son logo introduced in about 1865, I believe we can safely date this saw as being from the Civil War era of 1860 - 1865. An early and rare example of a finely made backsaw!!
Good . . . . .$350.00 SOLD!!
Disston Cone / Dome / Tall Nut Back Saw Although the
brass back is marked Orton Jewett & Busby, I do not think they were the
maker, just the seller or distributer. I believe this to be an early
Disston tall cone nut back saw. There is some minor pitting, but it is straight, and
will make a fine user after a tune-up..
Good + . . . . .$250.00 SOLD!!

well. Good + . . . . . $40.00 SOLD!!
