From my Medical Collection:  Here we have an Antique ARNOLD & SONS, LONDON Surgeon's Amputation Bone Saw, c 1880's.   James Arnold established his surgical instrument making business in 1819.  He brought his sons into the business in  1866 and operated as Arnold & Sons until 1927.  Arnold's firm manufactured all types of surgical instruments and were one of the larger makers in London at that time.  The saw handle neck is stamped ARNOLD & SONS LONDON.    This Smaller size steel bone saw would probably have been used in situations where space was limited so use on the smaller bones of lower arms, hands, feet etc. would have been appropriate.  This is a post-sterilization era saw but the use of screw and a swing away top spline would have been problematic from a sterilization perspective so I think this is a late 1880's era saw.  ( the swing away spline allowed the Surgeon the option of moving the spline when he need to cut completely through the bone)  The nickel plated handle is in very good condition.  The blade is also in very good condition with some light staining and good sharp teeth.  Saw is 11" long. 'Apologies' -  crack at top screw ** Please remember to leave Feedback.  I will gladly reciprocate.  :-)
