Disston D-115 Rosewood Mint In The Box With Tag And Wrapper

And if that’s not enough, it’s dated. Dated saws are crucial to our type studies. For example, we know now that the early style rounded handles were used at least until 1930. A 26 inch, 8 point crosscut unused in it’s original Christmas box. The blade is a little tarnished and the original lacquer on the rosewood handle is crazing a bit. The box is rough. A third of it has been replaced.
