The refinished handle is good and tight on original slotted steel saw nuts with medallion; horns are good.
This had a repaired handle when I got it which was loose and the old animal glue was bad.
I carefully took the handle apart and refixed with epoxy and filled the screw holes before rescrewing the joints, now good and solid.
Handle refinished in blonde shellac and cut back with paste wax.
Teeth may need a touch with a file.
Approx 11 tpi. Good makers mark to spine and the original etch can just be made out ion a good raking light. 650g before safe packaging.
Nice old premium quality saw.
