The last OFG I knew was seriously into saw sets, those gizmos that set the teeth to the proper angle on hand saws, which are kind of an OFG's tool of their own.
Apparently the Stanley 42X is the gold standard for OFG's saw sets. Exactly why, I haven't a clue.
I do know that once the teeth are set, they need to be sharpened with a file, which makes the very notion of setting a saw a wee bit intimidating
but decidedly not fo Old Fashioned Gentlemen!
What's been your latest interaction with saw sets, and/or Old Fashioned Gentlemen?

I'm good, thanks.

I actually used my Stanley hand saw two days ago to cut a 2x4. There's something about using a hand saw instead of power tools that just feels right and manly.

Any chance we're confusing "Old Fashioned Gentleman" with "Great Depression Era Geezer?"

Could be.

I like tools. I probably have more tools than I need.*

Few people NEED a saw set. If you collect saws, you might want one, and that's cool.
