Bad Axe 18" Large Tenon Saw: 'The Beast'

Here's a big saw for big work, with the balance and grace to handle medium-range requirements as well. It's a beastly-sized saw, so unimaginatively, I call it The Beast. This saw features a 4.5" deep x 18" long premium-grade Swedish spring steel sawplate, a firearms-grade, hot-blued carbon steel or optional stainless steel back, cherry or optional walnut handle, and standard brass slotted fasteners or an array of optional slotted and split nut fasteners in three alloys: brass, gunsmith-blued steel and stainless steel. Standard filing suitable for most purposes are 10 ppi rip and 11 ppi x-cut. Be sure to check out my bench hooks to accessorize this great tool if you'd like it filed in crosscut mode.
