JD's 136 - Just a generic looking saw set, however...
This is not a discussion as to
the merits of various makes of Saw
Sets, or an in-depth discussion on
their use however before I get too
far into the point of this story I will
state that I feel that the Eclipse No
77 is one of the most common
found and also copied by other
manufacturers due to efficiency
and ease of use making it the
preferred choice of carpenters,
cabinet makers and other timber
using trades. I will concede that
the hard-point saws and Japanese
pull saws have lessened the
demand for handsaw sharpening
however interestingly there is now
resurgence in the use of the
traditional hand saws.
