A tungsten carbide rod saw blade to fit to a junior hacksaw frame and used to cut tiles. Made by the Abrasive Tool Co. of Twickenham, England, which no longer seems to exist, little info online.

Those rod saws can be handy in a pinch, and I use the full-size ones (from Harbor Freight I think) to cut brick. Not all the way through a brick; that would take forever but cut 1/8" or so around the perimeter of a brick and hit it with a hammer and most times you'll get a clean break.
A nicer, cleaner way of scoring the brick rather than chipping with a masonry hammer. I saw some talk online about using it as a hack saw... These days, angle grinder!
