Speaking of Disston-made Jackson saws, do we know why they chose that
name for their saws?
I was using one last week and it confirms my opinion that Disston
never made a bad saw. Jacksons are second rate in finish only, mostly
due to the beech handle. I actually prefer them to the Disston No. 4
due to the thinner steel plate. It's like a laser through butter.
Jackson backsaws are great users.

afternoon with Charlie and the Sawnut
