Claim: In an extension-frame hack-saw, the combination with a grip-plate formed with a slot and located in the plane of the saw, of an extension saw-frame mounted in the said plate with its free end extending rearwardly through the said slot, and grip-scales mounted in the plane of the saw upon the said plate and having their upper ends interposed between the hand of the user and the free rear end of the extension saw-frame for the protection of the hand therefrom.
