L – 27-1/4”,

Blade - 24", There are 22, “V” teeth, 1/2" high. They have a 1" spacing at the handle and 1-1/8” spacing near the end of the blade.  The teeth are beveled on both sides.  The back side of the blade is straight until the fifth tooth from the end, then, it tapes to a point at the tip.  The teeth side of the blade arches approximately ½” above a line from the tooth at the handle and the fifth tooth from the end.  Handle is hollow and has 10 holes on each side and is attached with two rivets.

A couple examples of altering saws for a needed use. 

See the two examples below.

   

L – 41-1/4”,

Appears the blade was made from a two-man cross cut saw. I have seen this blade pattern on two-man cross cut saws. Blade 36.75" long, 6.5" wide at the handle and 3.75 at the last tooth.  Handle made of a solid iron bar.  It is bent to shape and split at each end and bolted to the blade.  Teeth - 5 small single pointed teeth at the end, 10 "M" style teeth alternating with 9 pairs of single teeth.  Teeth are sharpened in a crosscut fashion.

        

L – 53”,

An example of good old human ingenuity.  A home made ice saw with the handle made from a section of pipe and attached with two rivets.  The blade is from either an ice harvesting saw or an ordinary two man cross cut saw.  Notice the uneven cut back side of the blade. Blade length 46-1/2" and was cut from a larger saw blade, There are 29 teeth, alternating two "V" type with one "M" type teeth.  No markings.

The two saws below are not ice saws.

Just because a saw has a metal handle does not mean it is an ice saw!  They are docking saws.  Docking saws were saws used around docks and lumber yards where rough ends of boards were sawed off (docked).  Many were made with metal handles because of the rough use and handling. Many were probably used to cut ice also.

Typical Docking Saw

  

L – 33-1/2”,

Metal handle attached with two rivets. Numerous holes along both sides of the handle to reduce weight.  Standard “V” type cutting teeth, 0.25” tip-tip (4 tpi). The blade is 6-1/4” wide at the handle and 2-1/2” at the end. The number “3” between the lower rivet and the handle opening for the fingers.    

May be a Miners Docking Saw

    

L – 34-1/2”,

Metal handle attached with 2 rivets, 4 holes in sides of handle, hollow handle, Blade width is 6.25" at the handle and 2.5" at the tip. Points sloped at approx 60 degrees, 71 teeth.  Probably a miner docking saw, a version for use in mines.  Marking appears to be an “AW” mesh in a circle on the handle between the upper hole and the upper tip. The “AW” might be Albany Saw Works (Albany, NY).
