The blade is a commercial one, that was sold with a ugly plastic handle ...
so I couldn't help but making a wooden one :lol:.
I tried to do like the great US and UK pre war tool makers.
Notice the French/Euro coin inlaid, it's just a little wink from me ..

Christophe,

This is a very beautiful and comfortable handle saw addition to your toolset. What a tool transformation and inspiration for all of us to see. As usual you transform your tools from being "tools" to being "tools and art" combined. What a joy it must be to work with these tools.

I wish you and your family a wonderful holiday season,
Paul

Lovely work Christophe.

One day the coin may even be worth something :hattip:

Nice work, that inlaid coin is the first thing I noticed.
