Pair of Barrett, Jarvis & Morris Saws Crosscut and Rip -- Freshly Sharpened

Here is a nice pair of saws from the hardware firm of Barrett, Jarvis & Morris of New Haven, CT. Both are early saws with stamped plates and split nut fasteners. The 24 inch crosscut saw has a beautiful large medallion fitted in an apple wood handle, while the 21 inch rip saw has a different medallion in a beech handle. The top horn on both handles have been shortened by a previous owner, though the modification does not affect function or comfort. The plates are clean and straight. These are gorgeous saws.
