That's a great eye you have. The kerning does look off on my saw stamp, particularly between the "N" and the "D" in LONDON. Though the missing...
Wow, thanks very much for the searching. I didn't even realize a chandlery sold tools until I looked it up just now. I wonder if it was common...
Thanks so much for having a look. Still a puzzle.
Certainly, here are a few more.[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Wondering if anyone has any info on saws made/made for C. Thomas - London. I received this saw recently, but haven't been able to find any info on...
Nice example. I have a very similar saw and agree, the handle despite being quite snug feels quite good in the hand. Modern saws have too much...
I appreciate your input David, nice to see that someone else could find letters in those photos. It was so hard to photograph that I resorted to...
Hey everyone, just sharing an interesting saw I picked up recently. It has a seemingly early-ish style handle, three smaller split nuts and what...

Thanks very much Bob. Feel free to add the medallion in to the reference. I originally thought the cheek was flattened from ramming into wood...
I just received a beautiful Ibbotsons & Roebuck 12 backsaw. I can't seem to find much on them in the forum here, so I thought it could be of...
Thanks for your opinion Joe. I appreciate it.
Looking for some help on this saw, not mine, but the owner was thinking of installing a new plate and restoring the handle. I thought I'd get...
Thanks for the detail David. I was wondering if the toe had been trimmed as the nib was closer than what I would normally expect to see, though...
I picked up this Kenyon Sykes & Co this week, thinking it was just a Sykes & Co as the Kenyon stamp is much fainter than the rest. Unfortunately...
I've recently bought a very nice R. Groves ripsaw in great condition that has a stamp a little different from that found in BSSM. It looks like...
