Truly exceptional.

This saw is a masterpiece and a great example of the Japanese art of designing and forming metal tools.The blade edge is narrower than the cutting width, so the blade cannot skew. The saw teeth are very sharp and have been tempered in a special process, where, in the space of a few thousandths of a second, heat and cold alternate through alterning currents. The saw cuts on the pull stroke, which takes a bit of getting used to, but makes a lot of sense when you think about it. The carbon steel saw blade has a tapered cut, giving the blade edge greater stability, thereby reducing wear. The cork covered aluminium handle makes working in awkward places or high up much easier, as it is so comfortable to use.
