Description: This saw is a beast! a full 36 inches of plate, I count 4 ppi as in an inch from the first tooth point to the fourth tooth point. They made larger handsaws for advertising but not as a regular catalog item. I've run across 30 inchers fairly regularly, saw a 32 incher once, this is the only 36 incher I have heard of, that said I hope to hear from those that have them, I'll add responses to the questions sections when I get them. The plate is straight, hard to hold it still enough to sight down the teeth but looks straight to me. The patina is deep and dark, I swear I have seen the etch under it in the right light as I recall measuring it for center when I acquired the saw, it was in the proper location but I sure can't get it to show itself now. Only after looking at one of the pictures on the screen did I see what might be a 7. I'm sure it would reveal itself with some cleaning but I always liked the nice original finish, looks to have been hanging in a barn since timber frame building stopped being a thing. One of those get it when you see it items, make this big dog yours. UPDATE; After several months listed I have yet to hear from anyone on another sighting of a handsaw this large, anyone out there? For information on old tools the resources at Mid West Tool Collectors Association are top notch. They have links collected there for everything antique tool related.https://mwtca.org/useful-reference/ Make sure to check out my other items, I will combine shipping just wait for the invoice. I am in a selling mood, it's not Christmas yet but schit has to go, offers is set to let me see offers that I don't think I'll take, might change my mind..........
