Eric doesn't put bread saws or butcher saws on the Disstonian site that I know of.
Maybe he will one day.

  Yours is a butcher's saw. About med weight/quality from what I can see. Disston made these in many configurations and sizes. At a guess I suspect yours is pretty late. 1940-50's maybe.

I'm pretty sure your No. 16 is a butcher's saw, also known as a meat saw.
