Etna Saw 24 Review By: I.Ball
Category: Old Hand Saws
Manufacturer: Etna
Tool Type: Hand Saw
Model No: 24
The Etna saw number 24 is made with a cast iron blade and a Beech hardwood
handle of simple design. The handle has much less intricate design than
many saw handles of the time.
The 24 handle is secured to the blade with the use of three brass
splitnut buttons.
The saw blade etching shows a picture of a mountain which I would guess
represents Mount Etna.
I am not 100 percent 'Etna' is the saw maker, it is possibly a brand.
There are possible links to Spear and Jackson who operated from
the 'Aetna Works' for a long period of time.
The Etna saw shown is 26 inches in length and has 6 1/2 teeth per inch (tpi).
There were different lengthed and tpi versions of this saw produced.
Handle: Beech
Number Of Buttons: 3
Type Of Buttons: Brass, Split-nut
Medallion Markings:
'Warranted Superior'
Blade Markings:
'Warranted Cast Steel Sheffield, Etna, Trade Mark,
No 24 (and possibly a C or an E)' along with a picture of a mountain.'

"Just stumbled across your website and an absolute treasure trove of information.
I was recently given an old Stanley 110 block plane and wanted to know more about it.
Your website told me everything I needed to know.
But there is so much more to read. I forsee me spending a lot of time just reading
page after page. I can appreciate how much time this will have taken to put together.
I just wanted to let you know that your hard work is appreciated."
