Provenance

Where it came from

The Bone Saw was released in 2022 as part of The Brothers' War Retro Artifacts, a special subset of cards designed to evoke the aesthetic of early Magic: The Gathering history. These cards feature a distinctive 'retro' frame, mirroring the original layout used when the game debuted in 1993, intended to ground the set in the lore of the conflict between Urza and Mishra.

Originally appearing in the 2004 set Mirrodin, the Bone Saw was designed as a low-cost equipment card. The retro-frame version utilizes updated digital art that emphasizes its grim, jagged design, fitting for the industrial and war-torn atmosphere of the Brothers' War narrative. The cards in this subset were widely collected for their nostalgic appeal and consistent visual language across the expansion.
