Hey folks! I'm on the hunt for brass saw backs and would really prefer to buy from a Canadian source if possible. I've been eyeing the ones from Glancy's Alchemy, but I'd love to support local makers instead. Any suggestions?

You can also check out Rob Cosman's site for saws. They have a decent collection, although I'm not sure if they specifically have brass saw backs.
You might want to check out Great Lakes Tool Works. They were making brass saw backs, but I just noticed they have a notice saying they've stopped production for now. Still, their site lists some saws; it could be worth reaching out to them for any updates!
I don't have a specific source for brass saw backs, but I recommend looking for a local jobber shop that has the right bending equipment. Just make sure they can anneal the brass while bending it; otherwise, you might end up with cracks. Good luck!
Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely get in touch with them.
