I prefer sawing most of my dovetail waste out with a fret saw instead of chopping it out with a chisel.  Sawing takes less effort and is easier to control.  My fret saw features;

  • Pinned handle to prevent separation

  • Handle taped like a hockey stick for better grip and control

  • Frame is stiff and top mounted wing nut allows tightening blade to resist bowing

  • Light and with just a 3" depth of throat it is balanced

  • Quick twist of the blade at clamping points eliminates throat capacity restrictions.

  • Accepts 5 inch blades.  I highly recommend using our five inch, 12.5 tpi skip tooth blades with this saw.  

  • Skip tooth blades cut faster, especially in hard woods.

  • Includes a package of 12 blades.

Size: Overall length (maximum extension: 12 1/2 inches; (minimum extension) 8 inches.  Maximum frame opening: 6 Inches.  Depth of throat: 3 inches.

Height: 4 1/2 inches.

Weight: 160 grams.

Frame: Made from forged steel construction for exceptional performance and durability features.

Handle:  Wooden 4 inch long, wrapped in hockey grip tape.

Blade:  Length: 5 inches.  Width = 0.038 inches, Thickness = .016 inches,  Teeth Per Inch (TPI) = 12.5 .

Way out performs the price point

I was a little stunned at the price when I first looked, and figured I would give it a try. The experience was absolutely fantastic all the way through. Rob called me to thank me for my business, and while I was unable to take the call, it was a classy touch I was not ready for. Then the shipping was fast (international) and the tool works like an absolute dream. I used to be a believer in chisel work over saws for clearing dovetail waste because I was used to clunky coping saws. This is a game changer and a huge time saver. I have converted my students in this direction as well. Just an all around pleasant experience. Thank you!

Reliable Quality

Well balanced saw cuts smoothly. Problems I've had with other supposed quality fretsaws is the blade clamping letting go at crucial stages. At last, here is a fretsaw with decent blade clamping that can be relied upon.

Excellent little saw

I'm very happy with this little saw. It's very rigid, well made, easy to adjust and use. I highly recommend it for fine sawing. In my case, it's primarily for cutting the waste out of dovetail joints, and it's perfect for the job.

A Mighty Fret

This is a great little saw. It's superbly well made and well designed. More than anything, it cuts through waste with ease. With the hockey stick grip it feels right at home in your hand. Terrific saw.
