Offered in this lot we have a wood framed buck bow saw originating from the early 19th century. The piece shows a painted wood frame with a metal saw blade and metal tightened system. The saw blade shows a cutting pattern used for trees and fresh wood and was most likely used on a farm or as part of a lumber operation. This type of saw is also known as a Swede saw, Finn saw or buck saw. It is a rough tool that can be used for cross-cutting branches or firewood down to size. The saw shows good condition for its age with some wear and signs of repair on the frame and rusting on the blade. The saw measures 34" wide by 26" tall.
