Arne on Nostr: It's not an object of beauty and the blade isn't retractable any more, but a scrap ...

It's not an object of beauty and the blade isn't retractable any more, but a scrap piece from a wooden kitchen worktop made a new handle for my saw.
It took me about half an hour to make it. If your are reasonably well paid, you might say it's more economical to buy a new saw. But we can't afford that kind of attitude any more (even though I fall into that trap too sometimes).
A bit of sharpening with a triangular file and the blade was as new.
