Here are two unknown, i think German saws, i dont know from whom and when they were made. One has a very rough handle with bandsawmarks on the sides and for me unknown rivets. Maybe i am wrong with the saws and anybody can give the right answers. first one Strange form of the handle second saw the saw was heavely sharpend, but not completely toothed to the heel to get it straight i should cut about have of an inch
It's really good to see such unusual saws here. Thanks very much to Pastahill. The rivets look very similar to ones I've seen on backsaws that are marked "Foreign" and which I believe were probably made in Germany. It would be good to have a comment from Wolfgang Jordan, who is very knowledgeable on German saws. The sharpening of the second one is the sort of result I would get if I tried, and although I may foolish I would never try to sharpen a saw.
