I think I would call that saw " The EX"! They Never go away, Never get lost, always around, nippin at your ankles. Yep, I would call it the ex.
Well, maybe not, that would give a warm thought to "the ex".
It usually turns out that a thief is from a long ways away. A friend had his splitter stolen. A year later it was recovered in wisconsin, some 80 miles away. Dead give-away was the pinto 4 cylinder motor running it and the owner's name welded in to the bottomside of the split catcher.
Have never understood why a thief steals a working mans' tools, when he is too lazy to work.
Congrats to you on this most fortunate outcome!!
