Antique 68" Two-Man Crosscut Saw – Hand Forged Logging Tool

Description :
This antique two-man crosscut saw measures 68" long and features large alternating teeth designed for cutting across wood grain. The blade shows consistent surface patina and oxidation, reflecting age and use. One original wooden handle remains attached, while the opposite end retains its metal mounting bracket for a second handle.
