Harvey Peace Hand Saws |
|
Harvey W. Peace made three distinct types of handsaws. | |
Introduced between 1883 and 1884, Peace's Perfection line of saws (The P70, P68, P47, P45, P37, and P27) are easily distinguished by their "let-in" handles similar to Disston's D-8 and D-100 models. This improvement was intended to bring the user's hand "closer to the work" and by moving the saw's center of gravity. These saws also featured Peace's patented nickel-plated re inforcing plate which was designed to "stiffen the heel and strengthen the handle". |
