This saw is made for when you need to cut a dowel, tenon, wedge, trim, or other component flush to an adjacent surface. Both edges on the saw have crosscut teeth, one edge is designed for hardwoods the other is better suited for softwoods. 

Unlike most saws this saw does not have any ''set'' to the teeth. ''Set'' is when the teeth are slightly bent out from the blade to create a kerf wider than the blade. This is needed to prevent the blade from binding in the cut and important on most saws. However, ''set'' causes scratching to the surface of wood when trying to flush cut. 

With no set to the teeth and a thin flexible blade the saw can be held flat to one surface and cut the protruding competent perfectly flush, without scratching or marring the flat surface of the wood. 

The high-grade SK85 Japanese tool steel blade is 150mm (6'') long. The handle is made of Beech and is stained a rich mahogany colour and shaped for maximum comfort and control. Premium brass hardware secures the 0.4mm (0.015'') blade to handle and allows for easy blade replacement.

Expertly crafted in Japan, Temple Tool Co. blends legendary Japanese craftsmanship with our signature Western aesthetics to create timeless tools that perform as good as they look.
