Ahem...  That is most assuredly not a collection.  That would be just the
beginning of the requiste number to allow for cross-cut and rip saws in
different tooth, fleam, gullet depth, and set for hard and soft woods of
differing moisture content, grain orientation, and things I'm sure I'm
forgetting.  As well as the significant differences in plate taper and
steel quality across the important saw makers of the last 200 years.  And
panel vs. full size.  And backsaws.  And variety in nib design and purpose!
  Seven saws, indeed.  Harumph...
