Default My train and church saws.

Just finished these today. I used 1/4" maple and walnut, cut with a 2/0R blade on the saw blades and a #5 skip tooth for the handle lamination. The only place I can sign these is on the handle bottom behind the blade where it doesn't show, I use a Dremel engraver. Finished with semi-gloss Deft spray.
