Mark uses a few different devices, none currently manufactured. You might try used/vintage tool sources.

Also note that Bad Axe has a full range of saw restoration and tuning services available at reasonable prices.

Can you recommend a brand or model of hammer setting tool, or is mark free handing this?

Long story short, I agree with your assessments of the saws. I bet you’d really appreciate Mark’s saw seminar and it would be a perfect occasion to upgrade your older saws! Mark’s level of knowledge and skill is awesome.

I have some early Bad Axe saws before Mark started doing this and while still outstanding the difference is tangible. Mark keeps telling me to send them back so he can hammer set them, but I have a hard time parting with them even now as I used them just about every trip into the shop. Mark needs a loaner saw program like a car dealership!

Wish I’d said that. Enjoyed meeting you at the seminar.
