Looking for info on this old saw

[Jaygettinstarted]

Picked up this gem for $40 running, mostly because I have a big one that looks similar but the big one is lefty. (See 1st pic) Can't seem to find any info on it? It has Porter Cable, Sears, and David Bradley all printed on the saw too. (See 2nd pic) Which seemed rare to me

The first time ever I've been tempted to say "It's adorable!" about a chain saw...

Yup. Lol. I bought it cause I have its 93cc, 27lb, left handed big brother

Is that bar set up for a suicide handle? Sure looks like it.

 

[cookies]

it looks like the electric version of the original design intended for surgery

 

[Jaygettinstarted]

It's got an 8" bar, and goes pretty good for an old electric saw I'd say. It sounds like an old electric drill

What's a suicide handle?

 

[Brufab]

The end of the bar with a handle on a 2 man saw.

I don't believe there's any mounting holes in the tip or anything. I'll look tonight when I get home

The end of that bar on the tiny electric saw looks like the bar end on a mall chainsaw which accepts a handle for 2 man capabilities

Yeah but there like a wider circle in the center of the slot like it's for hanging or something?

 

[Brufab]

Could be, just looked pretty cool either way. Probly not many left out there of the 2 saws you have.

 

[Jaygettinstarted]

I've seen one of each. My local Husqvarna dealer has the big lefty as a display (Mine's in better shape), and a friend of mine just got the identical lil electric saw but my serial # is roughly 1000 lower

 

[Brufab]

that's amazing!

 

[Jaygettinstarted]

I was amazed when my buddy messaged me and said look what I just bought. He didn't even know I had mine then either. Both the big and the electric saws are made in Syracuse,NY about a half hour from where I live.

 

[Brufab]

Pretty cool to find stuff that is locally made
