Silverton Puzzle Co., 300 pieces. According to the Jigasaurus, Silverton was an early 2000s UK cutter no longer in existence. It's a perfectly nice laser-cut puzzle with a fun image. 3/5 (NB: I bought this from a UK seller who listed it as hand-cut. Ordinarily I rate sellers on sales sites with five-star feedback for delivering what it says on the tin; my ratings here on this blog are lower because they're relative and 3/5 is "what it says on the tin; good way to pass the time." This time I gave neutral feedback on eBay because the listing was erroneous. The seller has doubled down, claiming that I don't know what I'm talking about because there are no scorch marks on the wood. If you read this blog, you probably know that's not diagnostic and that laser-cut and hand-cut produce easily distinguishable results even at the high end like Fathom, Hidden Piece, and Liberty. I am annoyed! Anyway, if you're looking for modern jigsaws and have never heard of a purported hand-cutter before, don't be like me--check Jigasaurus first!)
