Manufacturer: Thomas Turner
Tool Type: Hand Saw
Model No: 1


           

The Thomas Turner 1 hand saw is an old English saw with an elegant decorative shaped Beech handle.

This decorative and intricate shape is especially noticed when compared to more modern wooden handled hand saws where there is usually quite a plain design with a more simple shaping to the handle.

The handle is fitted with two brass split nut buttons which are presented flush with the handle. The two split nuts are used to secure the handle to the old style nibbed blade.

This saw was made in different lengths and various teeth per inch (tpi).

"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."
