Extra London Spring Steel Blade, Warranted Apple Handle Polished, Brass Screws.
This Saw is particularly adapted for fine cabinet work, sawing mitres, where rapid and smooth cutting is required. The use of a plane can be dispensed with, as it will cut a joint sufficiently smooth to glue without planing. In sharpening, care must be taken to file the teeth at the same angle as they leave the factory. Use a 4-1/2 inch regular taper file for the No 77 Saw. These Saws are warranted to run without set in dry, seasoned lumber only, and are not for general use. They are high in temper, specially ground for clearance and require no set.
