So do you have one ? Or are you looking for an example of one?

The general state of play is if you dont have a photo then it didnt happen

[PeteOM]

Here's a couple. I do have one.

Egg on my face ... yes.

So can you tell us the story of how you came to have it?

Would you believe Yardsale?

If not I can't say much more. I can't imagine this is a one of a kind disston..,,. I just can't find any info of these... I meant to touch base. With the Disston institute today but got busy with that 4 letter word...Work

Now I have to know what you find out about this saw. I tried doing some searching myself last night after you sent me a PM, but came up short. Just tell me he didn't also have a saw presented to Winston Churchill...

Good luck with the research.

Cheers,
