When I was growing up, I always helped my Dad with projects around our house. My Grandfather was a carpenter and when ever he came to visit he made things out of wood including a really cool windmill of a guy sawing wood. Let me tell you that guy could really saw some wood in the South Dakota winds.
I was cleaning up my shop today and ran across my first hand saw.

This is a 16" 8 tpi saw. The name badge says Disston. I know it is at least 59 years old because I received it when I was 9. I cleaned it up and tried it out. It cut okay, but could use sharpening.
