Designed specifically to cut dry, furniture-grade, soft and hardwoods, our hand saws are made from hefty .035 inch thick, durable SK85 spring steel that has a Rockwell hardness between 55-60.  The thick saw plate makes our hand saws quite stiff which provides for easy and kink-free sawing and the steel retains its edge longer than other varieties, but still easily hand sharpened.

The teeth are cut using a CNC diamond saw, filed crosscut with 9 teeth per inch (TPI), and have a minimal .003 inch set per side.  This makes for a highly consistent and sharp tooth line that slices cleanly and precisely through cross-grain wood fibers while the minimal set keeps the saw laser straight in the cut.  

Our closed handle design harkens back to the Disston D-7 saws of yesteryear, but with our own unique modifications. Our handles have memory enhancing carved finger recesses for a perfect and repeatable fit.  Four brass split nuts and bolts secure the handle to the blade at a hang angle of 16 degrees which keeps your wrist aligned with your forearm for better and more comfortable body mechanics while sawing.  We make our handles from Richlite incredibly durable, sustainable, and versatile material made from High-grade FSC-certified paper infused with a thermosetting resin.
