Description: This 26 inch hand saw is marked with the G. Bishop Cincinnati etch and plated medallion. The No. 12 was near the top of their line, maybe two saw models priced higher in the time. The toe has a unique shape. I can see evidence that a nib was there, looks like a narrow one. The exact 26 inch blade and the centering of the etch lead me to believe this is the original length. I can't call it straight but it should be no problem for a saw Dr to tune it up, only a very slight bow with no kinks or dents, super smooth plate made the pictures hard, every fine scratch shows bright. Not a common Bishop model to see, make it yours while you can. For information on old tools the resources at Mid West Tool Collectors Association are top notch. They have links collected there for everything antique tool related.https://mwtca.org/useful-reference/ Make sure to check out my other items, I will combine shipping just wait for the invoice. I am in a selling mood, it's not Christmas yet but schit has to go, offers is set to let me see offers that I don't think I'll take, might change my mind..........
