Hello,

Can anyone identify or tell me a more about this hacksaw I bought recently?

I cannot see any identification anywhere and it looks like a commercial product, quite well made and heavy. Has a very nice latch arrangement combined with the on/off switch

Thanks

Peter

Thanks for the info, I couldnt find anything but looks like I didnt look hard enough! From the other posts it seems like they were around in the 1960's, wonder when they stopped being supplied? The wiring is oldish plastic covered so cpuld be original..

I thought the construction didnt look quite commercial but its not badly made. Unfortunatly its been dropped which badly bent the large pulley. Dont want to risk breaking it so considering boring it true and bushing back to size.
