Thanks, I’ll now have time to clean it up and get it working soon

Looks very good!
I have a couple to make now.

Interesting variation!

I found out from James Austin, he found it in catalog 23
It is most likely a 112

I have not figured how to post pictures properly here , sorry

I bought a nice looking saw yesterday, it needs some work, I identified it by the red paint and the faded etch as definitely a Simonfs , but I cannot find a model that matches it.
Any ideas?

Finished new handle of red ash with a pine tar BLO finsh.
Plus a new broadaxe handle of red ash from a crooked tree.

Great video! I learned alot the first time I watched it and learn more every time. He shows the trick for driving a fat wood pine wedge and I learned it from this film. I am making another handle, I snapped one off while driving wood wedges and pounding a hung up tree off a stump, I should have used...

How do you heat treat such a large piece of steel without warpage?
