For information on dating this saw and other British saws, see the
'British Saws and Saw Makers from c1660' book, written by Simon Barley.
The book is the most comprehensive saw directory to date listing makers, makers
marks and manufacturing dates. There is also a whole host of additional information
on the history of saw making, how to date a saw, in depth details
on each of the large makers and much more, making for the most interesting read
and leaving you with a slight desire to buy an old British saw.

"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."
