Veritas Saws
Veritas Dovetail, Crosscut and Flush Cutting Saws
Veritas Dovetail and Crosscut Saws are an innovative blend of tradition and technology, incorporating the critical characteristics of a classic fine joinery saw but made using modern production processes and state-of-the-art materials.
Each saw has a spine moulded from an advanced material incorporating stainless-steel powder for weight, glass fibre for stiffness, and a polymer resin binder. An over-moulded blade and stainless-steel handle-mounting bolt creates a solid one-piece blade/spine/mount assembly. A single brass fastener secures the bubinga handle. Made of high-carbon steel, the blade of each is 9-1/4" long and 0.020" thick, with a cut depth of about 1-9/16". All three are 14-1/4" long overall. Comfortable, well-balanced saws.
