kmmcrafts Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 This isn't the first time I've seen this style table on what looks like a Hawk saw.. in fact.. I just seen another one tonight that was labeled a Hawk 226 with that same style table.. Maybe real early models? Last few photos is the Hawk I seen.. Links are to the ads in case any are interested.. https://kansascity.craigslist.org/tls/d/emporia-tradehigh-end-scroll-saw-usa/6899078359.html https://akroncanton.craigslist.org/tls/d/clinton-hawk-precision-scroll-saw/6902218178.html OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTTHECLOCKMAN Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) Never seen it and I do not believe that the ones with the tennis ball are Hawks. I have watched Hawk saws since they came out. Now the ones with the barrel clamps is a yes. The others maybe a knock off. They were always red as far as I remember. The blue ones were made by GLENDO CORP. in Kansas. Here is what it says in the ad. These were around $800 new. I've never used this one. manufactured by GLENDO CORP. in Emporia, Ks. My dad was the shop mgr. and asked if I wanted to buy the last one. They were manufactured for Heartland by GLENDO, a custom fab. shop.

kmmcrafts Posted June 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 Well I do know there are in fact blue Hawks as well as Green.. I've seen them myself.. and no they were not a repainted restore.. In fact.. Hawk did sell under another name too.. Most of these was sent to other countries but there are a few I've run up on.. I wish I had saved the pictures I had of one that I looked at last year.. I hadn't heard of this Glendo made one and it's so similar that I had to ask.. if anyone else knew anything about them..

kmmcrafts Posted June 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 I knew there was a topic about this a while back.. and I know there is another topic with a blue color one as well but I stopped searching once I run across this one.

JTTHECLOCKMAN Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) The thing that is odd about the red Hawk is the table shape. I can not remember seeing that shape on a Hawk. I did not realize this bit of history. Never seen any other color. Probably did that because there was a call for those saws there. They were made by RBI with the different motor and that maybe the reason why they chose a different color to designate the difference. Anyone buys one need to be aware of that. That blue one is a knock off and who knows how many were even made. Not sure about patents back then and if that was even legal. Today you see so many saws that look like they come off the same line but with a different color. I find this interesting. Would love to see a few of these. . In the early 1980s RBI released a series of scroll saws including the Falcon, Eagle, Condor, and Hawk https://books.google.com/books?id=aOQDAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA165&lpg=PA165&dq=condor+scroll+saw&source=bl&ots=o5Fo31R_SI&sig=ACfU3U29Vgy8QQ25U1dLC0IVV2kGvBCQvw&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjdt6W_2vXiAhWoT98KHUJjB14Q6AEwFXoECAkQAQ#v=onepage&q=condor scroll saw&f=false The more I look into this it seems RBI made scrollsaws for Woodmaster too and they were blue. https://offerup.com/item/detail/30152089/ Edited June 19, 2019 by JTTHECLOCKMAN OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCtoolguy Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 I noticed a couple of saws on C/L today that looked like they were made by Hawk but had a different name and color. https://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/tls/d/san-diego-scroll-saw/6920336404.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
