Click for larger image.

Features: Extra London Spring Steel, fine grained Blade, Warranted, Polished Rosewood Handle, five Brass Improved Screws, one Embossed. No Saw superior to this in the world.

Estimated Dates of Manufacture: 1880(?) - 1895(?) The No. 50 saws appear in the 1884 catalog, but not in the 1895 National Saw Company catalog.

A No. 50 has finally been spotted! Many thanks to Alan Jacobs for providing pictures of a NO. 50 he found. His saw is a little rough around the edges, but you can clearly see the "50" in the etch and the amazing rosewood grain and color in the handle. It's a fantastic saw. Thanks Alan!
