While I have been posting duplicate posts of my blog Discovering Wood here at LJ, I have decided to post a text only version here. I try to post picture heavy blogs, and the extra time involved in re-posting the pics is frankly not a good use of time. Please visit Discovering Wood the complete post with pictures.

I was just turned on to a new woodworking blog. The Saw Blog, by Matt Cianci, is devoted entirely to the subject of hand saws. Matt started this blog after selling his tablesaw, and embarked on a hand saw-only shop. He has some great articles about his own experiences, and this has the makings of a great journey for us to follow. Check it out:
