This listing is for a vintage Eclipse No. 77 saw set tool, made in England around the 1950s. This hand-held tool was designed to adjust the set of saw teeth, allowing woodworkers to fine-tune their saw blades for cleaner and more efficient cuts.
Constructed from solid brass or bronze alloy, this robust and functional tool features a knurled adjusting screw and a fixed anvil for controlling the angle and pressure of the set. Ideal as a functional tool for restoration and sharpening, or as a film, theatre, or photographic prop for period sets requiring authentic mid-century tools.
Used but in solid vintage condition. Some signs of age and use (light scratches and patina consistent with brass), but all parts move freely and the mechanism operates smoothly.
