I was given a saw several months ago that needs a bit of rehab. Heavy patina on
the blade but no rust, i.e., very, very dark. I started to work on it and
quickly saw there is an etched logo, but I can’t bring it up. Here is the best
pic I could get of the logo —

All I can read is “saw works”.
Here is the medallion —

“Sheffield Warranted” w/ an “A” enclosed in a shield and “Trade Mark”.
Can anyone provide info on this maker?
Later I was also given a bunch of saws that were trash and that was where I put
them. Before doing so I did salvage the handles. Pics of three not very special
handles are here —

If you would like one or more of these handles they are free for either the
price of the postage or a tool in return (chisels, dividers &/or calipers
preferred). Two things to consider: You will most likely have to make new holes
in your blade & if the handle looks too blocky, it just hasn’t seen the right
rasp yet.
