Part of the things I got after the death of my Dad a few years ago was
a cabinet with several (20-30) blades for a the old Delta TS he had.
I don't believe any of them are "name brand" blades. There are a
variety of rip and crosscut blades, some in decent shape and sharp,
and some are dull, and slightly rusty. If I had to guess, most of the
blades are at least 50 years old. Is there any use for these other
than selling for scrap metal prices which seem to be up these days? I
have his saw, a mid '50s Unisaw and I have a few good modern blades
for it. These old blades haven't seen the light of day in many years
and are just taking up space. Opinions?
Thanks in advance
