    I found this cross cut saw many years ago and purchased it on the spot.
    3 Circles with rhinestones ( at least that is what I assume they are ) adorn the handle.
    The blade has gold tip and there is residue of a gold tint hue on other parts of the blade. It definitely looks like it was used and not just a show piece.
    I have not seen another like this
    Anyone know any information on such a thing.??

      Bejewelled.... I like that word.....similar to festooned.....
      A very nice saw
      I can't say I ever saw one of these before.

      Pretty decorative handsaw, perhaps once owned by a lady carpenter

      I was prowling around the internet and found this:

      https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-1937-musical-saw-mussehl-220163540

      This may not be a "TOOL"
      Possibly an instrument for playing music
      1937 MUSSEHL & WESTPHAL Musical Saw is what this may be....

      Anyone know about this???

      Thank You

      Wow, that's quite the strange results. Never thought about it being a musical instrument. The Worthpoint post was very informational..lol

      I tried to play it. I need to practice. It has a funky
      "HAWAIIAN" sound. Like I heard on One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest ( movie with JACK ) the other day. Kick Out The Jams
