The BEST hand saw September 10, 2009 A_G (CA United States) This is the BEST handsaw I have ever used. My brother has owned one for about five years, and put it through more abuse than I care to mention. Despite years of use, neglect, and among other things, cutting roots in soil, his saw still cuts almost as well as a new one. I finally got one for myself, and it is a joy to use. A handsaw that actually cuts effortlessly? Yes, this saw is it. It takes less than 20 seconds to cross cut a 2x4, and that's if you're trying to cut a straight line. A rough cut takes less time. Wet pressure treated lumber isn't a problem either. Takes a bit more time, but still a breeze. With so many power tools these days, corded and cordless, hand tools are often overlooked. However, the convenience of a hand tool can't be dismissed. Instead of having to drag out a bulky, heavy, noisy power saw, you can use this awesome saw and make a few quick cuts in the same time it would take to get ready to make the cuts with a power tool. The blade is thin, high carbon steel with hardended SHARP teeth. Easy to change too! The handle is comfortable in the hand. With a thin kerf and teeth this sharp, the pull stroke cutting action allows more precise control. Just an excellent tool. Make sure to keep the blade gaurd on the teeth when not in use to protect them, and yourself. Made in Japan.
Shark Saw April 6, 2009 LL One of the best saws I ever used. I was able to cut 1/8th of an inch off on a piece of 2x4.
Best Handsaw I've ever used. April 5, 2009 L. Fiala (Minnesota) This is the first pull-type hand saw I've ever used. It has a narrow kerf because the blade cuts in tension rather than compression. I've got to rate this item great! I'd give it ten stars if I could.
Best small saw ever, but keep it away from nails January 7, 2009 George A. Winters (a little mountain town in WA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is far and away the best small saw I have ever used. I have a lot of experience with pruning and log cutting hand tools, and I have spent a lot of money getting saws that work well. This is not a pruning saw, I use it for carpentry, but no other saw I have used compares to this one for the smooth and fast and effortless cutting it will accomplish. But be aware, if you accidently saw a nail, this saw will self destruct, not just get dull, but actually break off the teeth. It is such a wonderful saw that I bought a replacement right away and I am very happy to take the extra care of keeping the guard on the saw and storing and using it with care, because it is such a wonderful small saw to cut with.
Great Saw January 4, 2009 Joshua Hill (Republic of Texas, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a great pull saw at a great price. It has a replaceable blade which is very handy. If you have ever been frustrated while sawing using a "western" saw because the saw buckles than this is what you want. It cuts on the pull stroke. I would highly recommend any pull saw but this one wins out because of its price.
