The Sandvik Tradition saw number 277 is a Swedish saw made with a Swedish

Swedish tool steel is regaded in similar high esteem as to Sheffield

The Sandvik Tradition saw handle has two serpent like creatures marked
on the handle which give these saws instant recognition.
The 277 handle is secured to the blade with the use of four brass/alloy

"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."
