From the Disston Institute: “Ripping is a labor-intensive process because of the length of the cut. A longer saw is more efficient, and a larger handle facilitates the use of two hands, also a big help. Notice the difference among the three handles, pictured above. All are from early 20th-century No. 7 saws, but the panel saw handle with three sawnuts has the notched detail on the top of the handle and the decorative groove at the front of the hand-hole. The center handle is a full-sized (26″) saw, with four nuts and similar shape, but it is larger than the panelsaw handle. The handle on the right is from a 28″ ripsaw. There’s no notch at the top, instead there is a smooth cutout for the web of the user’s hand while gripping the saw for two-handed work. The handle is a good deal larger and sturdier as well, to stand up to the hard work of ripping. ”
