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 .

Works great

Love this saw

Just used this saw to clear out dovetail waste in 3/4” red oak. Saw worked great. Love the feel of the tape on the handle. Much easier than chopping out the waste.

Great customer service

I had some issues with UPS delivery and the package basically disappeared. Gina with the support team was awesome and just sent out another one which arrived a few days ago while tracking down the lost package.

I love the feel of the handle and how balanced the entire saw is. Makes cutting out the waste on dovetails super easy and far less cleanup to do with a chisel afterwards than using a coping saw.

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!
