This professional grade Japanese saw features a long, sturdy saw blade, suited to timber framing and other large-scale carpentry projects. The universal teeth pattern allows for fast crosscut, mitre-cut and rip-cut performance in soft and hard woods, both seasoned and green. The high quality carbon steel blade is hardened (53-54 HRC), giving the blade flexibility and durability. The Japanese Tri-Edge-Teeth design provides for a highly efficient cutting performance, leaving a very clean and smooth cutting surface. The tips of the teeth undergo additional impulse hardening process to 68-70 HRC. This leaves the core and the base of the teeth tough and flexible. The result is a saw tooth that has a very long edge and resistance to breakage. Changing is a simple tap to loosen the old blade and then clipping a new one in place. This is also an advantage by allowing you to separate the blade from the handle for easy storage and transport in a toolbox. The handle has a soft grip for comfort offering better control. Overall length 720mm, blade length : 333mm, thickness : 0.8mm, kerf : 1.1mm, pitch : 2.8mm.
