Product Description

The product in this category is a "Pull Saw." This product features Japanese-style construction. What are most familiar in the U.S. are European saws, which are pushed so they cut materials thus, they are called "push saws.". However, Japanese saws cut materials by pulling, thus they are called "pull saws," like the product we are describing here. The edge that "pull saws" produce is cleaner than the edge from "push saws." Pull saws require less power, are lighter in weight, and require less power than "push saws."

Questions & Answers

The blade on this saw is flexible enough to allow one to cut door casings and jambs in place in order to allow a floating floor to slide ?

At the moment I am installing a hardwood floor, as I write. This saw is working flawlessly for me in this application, as well as another saw I use at work.

Does the blade have a tapered width because of its construction?

Due to their cutting on the pull, these saws cut more aggressively because the teeth dig in with less downward pressure due to the taper.

there any markings on the sides of the blade to know which side is for crossing and which one is for ripping?

I don't need to mark them. A rip blade has coarse teeth and a crosscut blade has fine teeth.

What are the chances of resharpening the blade?

Considering the teeth of the blade, I'm sure it can be resharpened, even if the blade itself has to be replaced. Replace the blade instead since this will be easier and faster. Replacing the blade takes a long time and is tedious. Did you ever try sharpening the old-fashioned saw you used for your This is also a very time-consuming task.

Selected User Reviews For SUIZAN Japanese Ryoba Pull Saw 7 Inch Double Edge Hand Saw for Woodworking

I was flawless in my The Japanese saw I acquired is the first I have ever owned, and I do not intend to throw it away

5/5

I was amazed at how well it performs the whole time, whether rip or crosscut, as I have the double edge, and I know it will last a long time. I have never used a saw that could handle every cutting job so well. In this case, I needed to rip a piece of wood about 24 inches and since it was so late, I didn't want to disturb my neighbors or family with my table saw. Therefore, I took one of my conventional saws and began ripping. In addition, the saw referred to my cut line a bit, but that was on the waste side. I had not used my Ryoba yet and decided to give it the same test, but it is a rather small saw, so I was hesitant to trust it. With less than a minute, I had changed my mind. I'd no longer feel stuck, no longer feel hung up, I'd no longer drift, it cut straight and true, and in less time than the conventional method. The cutting was very clean. probably will need to replace the blade before long since I use it for every task now, but I do not know how much usage these saws get. If anyone does know, I would appreciate any knowledge you can share. When my daughter asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I answered the Kataba 10" crosscut and the Dozuki 9 1/2" dovetail. I'm so excited to be able to use them, and I'll let you know how they're doing.

I like it, but not nearly as good as the Gyokucho saw

3/5

My suizan saws are all brand new, so I'm pretty surprised at the reviews for this product. I like them a little but they don't compare to Gyokucho saws (which are also comparable in price-
I may have noticed a little bit more on some models)

This Ryoba is acceptable but the crosscut teeth chip off pretty In addition to these, I also own a dozuki and a kataba from Suizan, both of which are absolute It's simply not comparable with their competitors in terms of build quality. Purchasing a Gyokucho is definitely the best option if you plan on using the saw regularly. In addition to that, if you're thinking of buying a dozuki from Suizan, you should ALWAYS consider Compared with each other, there is.

The saw I bought is fantastic

5/5

I thought, as I took the saw out of the box, that it was so lightweight that it couldn't cut anything. That wasn't the case. On one board of a wood fence around my property, I found a crack. As I cut the other side I had to pull rather than push in order to fit the new board on. It flowed through the board like butter when I used the rip cut side. It was amazing how much easier it was to My circular saw turned a bit sideways attempting to cut the replacement board with my circular saw. The board was too wide, so the circular saw wasn't able to make When I used the cross cut side, it was like performing surgery on that section. It looked great and the board was like new The next time I use this, I'll find a way to apply.

This is not a very durable material

3/5

I broke five teeth on white ash wood the first time I used the saw.

I love it

5/5

My opinion of this product is very positive after using it! Buying this suizan saw was my first purchase I made in Japan, and I'm so glad that it is so amazing. The European style saw used to be my favorite, but now I am so enamored with Japanese saws, and they will definitely become my staple tool. My thoughts about this saw after using it are as follows There is nothing SHARP about this saw. It's never dull. The material cuts so easily, and it does not take much force to cut the whole In addition to a handle on top, it is The one I use now has allowed me to become a lot more skilled at woodworking!.

I just wanted something like that

4/5

My first reaction when I saw how flexible the blade was was skepticism, but when I tried it I was converted. The saw consistently cuts straight, clean lines every time no matter what. It's perfect for squaring up blocks when carving knife handles or doing anything else that requires squared Although I haven't used it for trim work yet, I am certain that it will perform well. The price was well worth it. Here's an update You should make sure to keep the blade oiled so that it does not rust. It is still a nice.

As if it were butter, this thing cuts through wood like butter

5/5

Perfect for delicate cuts where running it through a table saw or chop saw would be too hard or impractical. On one side, the blade is meant for clean cuts, while on the other, it's for fast, slightly rougher cuts. I will probably get a smaller one for the really fine jobs, because this one is just a little too big. It is surprisingly long at the handle as well. May have gone a bit too far.

The best pull saw on the market

5/5

The saw I bought could not have been better. It's everything from the quality to its sharpness to its flexibility that's perfect. I have to replace some teak deck bungs, and this is exactly what I'm looking for. There are another 75 I need to do. I have already completed about 75. By using this saw, a flush cut can be made in no time, requiring little or no sanding to finish. This is a great book!.
