I finally remembered to buy a new bow-saw last week. My old one, a Stanley
I think (can't tell because the brand name wore off years ago) is quite
blunt and I've never seen any replacement blades to fit it here. I could
only find bow-saws for sale that were labelled "made in China" so
reluctantly bought one.


You might find a new blade for your Stanley in the BTCV online shop
http://shop.btcv.org.uk/shop/level3/11/level
They have a range of sizes and the blades are "Sandvik" - who I
guess are swedish. In any case the BTCV shop is a good resource.
