Victorian/Art Nouveau inspired woodworking hand saw

Being a woodworker and a steampunk illustrator (amongst other things), I really like to have tools that reflect my personal aesthetic. This saw was designed using a modern Disston blade, ground and altered to fit and flow with the custom tiger maple handle I created. It's crosscut and cuts like a dream with its japanese style teeth and feels marvelous in the hand.  I don't mind the few nicks it gets in it over time as it all becomes history on the wood.

  2. I have been trying to incorporate Art Nouveau in my saws for a while, this is great inspiration. Forget thinking outside the box, you killed the box my friend. Absolutely beautiful work, I may have to play around with some shapes like this in my BearKat saws.

  3. Love the idea and shape. Do you anticipate selling the saw as a one off item

  4. Preparing and practice are vital for utilizing such devices. In the event that you are an amateur, attempt to gain the utilization of loppers from any master landscaper.smell proof containers
