This saw is marked Hill Late Howel, London. There's conflicting information as to when it was made. Based on the design, especially of the handle, I'd say first half of the 19th century for certain. It has a bold die stamp. The blade isn't perfectly straight. The handle is very good . It's a great example of early English sawmaking. $35

This is a top-quality Sheffield saw made by Groves. It's an earlier example with a die-stamped plate, rounded nose, nib, and one crown stamp. The handle is very unusual. It has brass star decorations let into the handle. There are also circular insets on the top and bottom horns. I presume these conceal some sort of reinforcing bolt (similar to what S&J used) though they could be purely decorative. The insets shimmer like mother of pearl or some sort of iridescent stone or shell. I've never seen anything like it. The plate is decently clean and straight enough to use, but not perfect. The handle has a truncated top horn and some chipping on the bottom horn. It's a unique saw that I believe is something special. $70

This saw design was patented April 7, 1885. As far as I know, this is the only known example. I'll add the reference in DATAMP. It's a unique design that uses a "shank and socket" construction method. Th saw is in excellent condition overall. Andrews made saws in Williamsport PA and later worked with Harvey Peace or sold his patents to Peace. $45
