A quick disassembly hacksaw comprising:
- an inverse U-shaped frame having a fore end, a rear end, a flexible triangular handle on a top of said fore end, a rear handle on said rear end, a front tube under said fore end including a circular inner wall in fore end and a rectangular inner wall in rear end thereof, a rear tube under said rear handle including a rectangular inner wall therein, a lug including a first horizontal hole disposed under said rear handle positioned apart from said rear tube, an indented corner on top of said rear handle, a pivotal tube on said indented corner and a safety detent having an inner end pivoted on said pivotal tube by a rivet and a hook under outer end thereof;
- an adjusting mechanism having a shank which has a threaded cylindrical fore part and a rectangular rear part inserted into said front tube including a first polyhedron on free end of said rectangular rear part which has a first slant projection on each lateral surface thereof and a tubular adjustable button screwed on said threaded cylindrical fore part and biased by a spring means therebetween, said tubular button having an enlarged annular flange at outer end including a threaded central bore therein engaged with said threaded cylindrical fore part;
- a positioning rod having a rectangular body inserted into said rear tube, a second horizontal hole in an outer end and a second polyhedron on an inner end including a slant projection on each lateral surface, said second polyhedron being arranged symmetrical with said first polyhedron;
- a fastening mechanism comprised of a link and a U-shaped leverage latch, said link having a pair of central slits, a first aligned thru hole adjacent an inner end engaged said second horizontal hole of said positioning rod and rotatably secured by a rivet and a second aligned thru hole adjacent an outer end thereof, said U-shaped leverage latch having third aligned thru hole adjacent a lower end engaged with said second aligned thru hole of said link and rotatably secured by a rivet, a fourth aligned thru hole adjacent a lower end apart from said third aligned thru hole engaged with said first horizontal hole of said lug and rotatably secured by a rivet and a fixed groove in a top thereof engageable with said hook of said safety detent;
- a saw blade having a thru hole adjacent each end engageable with said slant projections of said first and second polyhedrons respectively.
