    I've always liked this saw the best of the four I have from grandpa. It's in the best condition of them and he stamped his name on it though he dropped the "u" from our last name. No idea how well he spoke or wrote English but "young" translates to "ung" in Swedish so who knows where the u went. The grip on this saw is incredibly comfortable. Unfortunately there is a spot of corrosion smack in the middle of the logo which reads "Lake Side"

      A Superior saw. These were made by Disston. Supposedly they are lesser quality than the Disston named ones but the quality is still quite high. I have a Disston and a Superior and I prefer the Superior.
