Hacksaws...
 

--Years ago I got myself the best damn hacksaw I've ever used.
Forgot where I got it but the brand name was Victor, as in welding stuff.
I've been looking around for another one just like it but I can't find
them anywhere! Google was a bust, too. Anyone got an active source for a
lever-tightening hacksaw?

I picked up a Jet hacksaw a couple of months ago. Its the heaviest
hacksaw I have ever seen :-) Mind you the blade was crap, Got to pick
up some good Hakannson blades. check out your local welding supplier,
might carry them there.

That looks a lot like my 04922 Century hacksaw, which has been a disappointment.
It looks rigid as heck, but in use it's only a little better than the stamped
things I've used for years.

No complaints.

I currently have a Starrett high tension hacksaw. It's quite nice. Good
weight, very rigid, feels good.

Bahco has a very nice hacksaw frame:

ergonomically designed. Not cheap (about $40 Cnd).

HTH.
