So, these Japanese (or knockoffs of Japanese - that's a switch) saws are all over the internet, but for good reason - they work well. This is not the most expensive Japanese saw of this type that you can buy (not by a long shot), but if you're woodworking isn't making you enough money to buy the most expensive Japanese saws and still afford to buy lunch, you probably don't need the most expensive.I've been cutting wood with a handsaw since I was a kid - probably around 8 years old (grew up on a farm - and had a fort). I was terrible at it then, but was able to make two pieces out of one. I started building furniture in high school (good old Wood Shop Class - I think that is an archaic term now - kind of like rotary phones or a wristwatch that you wind, what sorcery is this?) but I digress. Those handsaws of my yesteryear were, of course, American/Western style push-cut saws, which were all I ever used until the last few years. I recall starting the cut with push-cut saws by dragging the teeth backwards over the wood until I got a shallow groove started. Of course, I only ever squared a line across one face of the board (and no edges), which didn't help me at all. But there was no internet in those days, and I didn't know Paul Sellers, so what was a poor boy to do?Enter the Pull-Cut, Japanese style saw - a game changer for me (and helped by two square lines on adjacent face and edge of item to be bifurcated) - The More you Know... I can now cut a board square in two directions, most of the time.These saws are sharp and accurate, even in Western hands. They are affordable, so give one a try and see if you like them as well as I do. There is something about that simple straight handle and a pull-cut motion that just seems more ergonomic - at least to me. Hopefully you will be so fortunate as well.

I purchased this blade for an unconventional use - I wanted to cut a 10" diameter roll of HDPE plastic sheet (1mm thick), but have the smallest kerf possible. A Japanese pull saw fits the bill, and this one had great reviews so I bought it. While it was a lot of physical effort due to the non-standard use, it did a superb job and stood up to the stress I gave it (including many flexings due to binding as the roll shifted) and looks as good as new. Teeth still sharp and ready for the next task.

This saw works well. Not as sharp as my older Razor saws buy still did a good job. Some less expensive brands of saw do not seem to the set in the teeth and dull quickly loading me to believe they were either lower carbon steel or improperly heat treated. This seems to be better than the couple saws bought earlier that were not fast cutters. The saw bounced instead of smooth even cuts. This saw felt a little dull but did cut nice and straight with just a little more effort than I remember.

Handy saw, cuts well, nice addition to my shop tools.

Looks great. Sharp!

Great quality product. I've now purchased 3 varieties of the Japanese saws and just completed 2 projects and am using hand tools exclusively. Very happy with the purchase.
