Old Paddock Wood Hand Saw – 26- 6tpi (Beech)

Description

A lovely old and I suspect rare hand saw.

The nibbed blade is marked ‘G T Masters, Paddock Wood’.

I am struggling to find any details about GT Masters of Paddock Wood.

Paddock Wood (Kent) is a small place (probably was just a tiny village when this was made) and not a place we have come across for any tool-makers so I suspect this was a niche tool-maker / saw-maker which makes the saw all the more interesting.

TPI: 6

Blade length: 26″

Condition: blade has a tiny curve, all teeth present, teeth feel and look sharp however please presume in need of a sharpen, the top handle spur is a repair (very common on old saws) please see photos for condition.
