Charles,

Those are some nice looking saws that you have to play with. What brand are they?

two of them are Disston and the other one is a Keystone.

Look good – are they sharp?

Very nice. For now I’m trying to do everything with one saw (my ryoba) while I have a Crown backsaw and an ol’ Stanley piece of junk sitting on the bench. If I get more saws, they’ll probably be more Japanese ones.

Yes they are real sharp. :)

Great saws. I just found a pair of saws, one crosscut and one rip, and am looking forward to sharpening them so I can make use of them. It’s funny how when I was a kid, I learned to cut with them then, somewhere along the way, I left them behind for the power tools. Now, I’m beginning to develop an appreciation for them and what I can do with them. -SST

It’s not a real gloat untill you tell the story of how you got them

A good woodworking friend of my give them to me.
