Title: Hand Saw Diamond Mark
Post by: BuddyC on March 31, 2018, 08:35:20 PM

Hello all,
I recently picked up a nice little hand saw, mostly because it is about a 14 TPI and not something I have.  The only mark I can find on it is this diamond shape.  Just wondering if anyone can attribute this to a particular maker.

Thanks!
BuddyC

Picture's too small for me to read the mark.

Thanks Papaw.

On the medallion, I was holding that in reserve to try and not prejudice the replies.  :grin:  The large medallion is an oval Craftsman medallion.  No other marks or etchings on the blade.

Trying pics again.  Got a chance to take photos of the saw itself.  From what I gather it is a Craftsman Carpenter's Chest Saw.  Small enough to fit in a tool chest.  It has the Craftsman oval logo with the long C

Sorry, looks small again to me. Full sized photos.  Must be a Flicker something.  Works fine on other sites.
