Howard,
There are many outlets where one can buy older back and dovetail saws for not a lot of money and then have them professionally set and sharpened. Can't see why you couldn't get an excellent tool that way for about 50 bucks.

If you had come to the last HFMS meeting you would have seen Rob Cosman cutting dovetails.
I have the LN DT saw, I really really like it!
Take care,
Jim
It can be done with just an old backsaw and sharp chisels. The one I have is an unknown that I've had for a long time. I hand sharpen it like I was taught 40 years ago.
