Disston #2 Saw Vise

[steve355]

Hi

I picked up a Disston saw vise last week when in the USA for $28. I swear it has never been used, it is in perfect condition. It will be used now.

Does anyone know the likely age of this vise? I’ve Googled around, plenty of info on Disston saws but not so much on the saw vises.

thanks
Steve

Steve, have a look at the 1918 Disston catalogue.

Saw Clamp No. 1
