Saw E2

This is the first crosscut limb saw that I used. With it I was able to make an almost invisible scar on my left hand knuckle. To do this I was trying to show a neighbor girl how good I was at cutting about 1 inch off of at staub on an apricot tree in front of our house. I did this in the late 40's or early 50s.

The family had the saw for an unknown amount of time before 1950. If you look carefully at the picture you will see that there is a bend in the blade that I put there, as a teenager, when I got frustrated with making a "cut" later on in the 50s.

When it got dull we used to take it down town to be sharpened by Joe Eastman. Since then I have had Dolly Chapman sharpen it. Dolly sharpened it in 2006.
