A saw’s condition and use shape its meaning. A hand saw connects energetic work with cheerful home life; large machinery saws suggest overseeing a profitable enterprise, and for a woman, gaining esteem and having her counsel heard. Rusty or broken saws point to failure and accidents, and losing one to disastrous affairs. Hearing its buzz suggests thrift and prosperity.
