Saw, Tenon

Tenon saw, Hancock, MA

Object ID:
1960.11446.1
Community:
Massachusetts, Hancock
Description

Tenon saw with (probably) cast steel blade, 9 tpi ground for cross-cut with slight set and a closed handle of beech. Brass saw bolts and split nuts for affixing handle to blade have been replaced by two iron rivets and burrs. Appears to have had an owner's stamp on proper right side of handle but all that remains is the rectangular outline of the stamp; the initials have been eliminated somehow.
