In this episode of Restore it, I restore this wonderful hand saw from Disston & Sons, Inc that was made around 1896. This came from the free lot of tools I got from a friends grandad. My friend's grandad told him that this was his dad's hand saw, and that's why such an old saw was in his collection.
