Here's another one from my grandfathers kit.
I doubt that it was a user though, the saw nuts were all gone and the handle pretty badly borer infected.
Still, it still had its little nib and a nice style about it so I made up a new handle and found some nuts on a non-saver at the tip. I used an angle grinder with a light deburring disc to do the cleanup of the blade and found this stamped on it;
The writing says, I SORBY Sheffield Cast Steel and the little logo is of the character Punch (of Punch and Judy).
I wonder if it would go as far back as the 1840's or shortly after?
