    Hi all,

    Here is another entry for the Aussie saws, found here in S.A. it is similar to Mari's saw posted back in Apr '16

    though not in as good condition.

    It is a John Farmer 22" 10 ppi x-cut panel saw.

    The teeth appear to be in their original condition, the etch is there but, faint.

    It's saw screws have slots to both heads though.

    At some stage some drongo thought it would be good to lay into it with a hammer, hence all the dings.

    Graham.

    Thanks for sharing this one, unusual fasteners on it, good for re tightening though!

    Hi all,

    Yes another entry for the Aussie saws, also found here in S.A.

    A locally made 14" pruning saw with 7 ppi.

    Made by The British Knife Co. Adelaide S.A.

    Probably made after WW II when imports were scarce.

    For some reason they had the slotted side of the screws on the face side...

    Graham.
