Henry Disston 12" Backsaw Open Tote Split Nut Rip

Description

Picked this up at a tool meet. The teeth were almost gone. I jointed the cut edge flat and filed/sharpened new teeth. 13 PPI rip, 6 degree angle using 4xx file. That info is written in Sharpie on the blade. Tote is in good shape though someone drilled a hang hole in it. 13/16” medallion with split nuts.  3/8” in from tote a very small bend in tooth line, does not affect use, cuts very nice and tracks perfectly. Useable depth is 1 7/8” at toe and 2 5/16” at heel.
From a smoke free home, saw has been stored in a climate controlled shop. Payment due within 3 days of auction end. Please email with questions.
