“THE ORCHARD” 
PRUNING HOOK AND SAW 
This tool meets general requirements. The economy 
of combining two tools in one will be appreciated. 
The knife and saw are made of Disston steel. Al¬ 
though possessing great strength, the tool is of light 
construction, with a crescent shaped blade which has 
long, slender teeth, so formed as to draw the saw into 
the wood. It is particularly adapted for sawing the 
smaller branches in general pruning. 
The saw blade, which is attached to the hook by 
two clamp-screws, can be removed when the hook only 
is required. This tool may be used with or without a 
pole. 
The handle is made of malleable iron, black fin¬ 
ish, with socket.Each, $2.00 
Easy to operate. Fitted with two small 
wheels. The black finish blades, 8" 
and 9" cut, are of Disston-made steel. 
Handles are 36" long with heavy steel 
ferrules, riveted through tang. Weight 
8" .Each, $5.00 
9" .Each, 5.25 
The pole is made of light-weight, tough, strong wood, rounded 
edges; varnished. The hook is made of solid Disston-made steel ym" 
thick. The hook is 1" wide and \Vi" deep, so that it will receive 
and hold branches of any size up to 1" in diameter. The blade is 
made of Disston-made steel specially treated to take and hold a keen 
cutting edge. It is of a curved shape, 2 3 /i" long, with a deep bevel. 
The hook and blade are both accurately ground. The shear on the 
pole pruner is tensioned by adjusting a simple bolt and nut arrange¬ 
ment. The hook is driven on the pole and held in place by a 4'A" 
iron ferrule. Two rivets pass through the hook, pole, and ferrule, 
holding the hook and blade rigidly in place. A steel lever allows for 
ample leverage. Comfortable wooden handle is riveted to the lever. 
A coil spring returns the lever to position after making a cut.
