Made by a small family-run firm in Wisconsin, this selection of handsaws
has been crafted from premium materials, with designs modelled after classic
late-19th-century American saws. Though finely made, these are anything
but delicate, with a heft that permits a powerful stroke.
The saws we offer all have hand-filed, hammer-set Swedish spring-steel blades
and oil-finished hickory handles secured with slotted nuts. The folded
backs are made of thick carbon steel for rigidity and added mass, and are
finished with the same black-oxide treatment used in firearms to provide
lasting protection against corrosion. |

The 10" dovetail saw weighs 14 oz, with an open
handle mounted at a noticeably lower angle than traditional
dovetail saws. The 0.018" thick blade cuts a 0.023"
kerf with a 1-7/8" cut depth. The 14 tpi rip pattern has
6° of rake and 5° of fleam to help reduce tearout. |

The 12" dovetail/small tenon saw weighs just over
1 lb. Its open handle is set at a moderately low hang angle,
and the 0.020" thick blade cuts a 0.027" kerf and
has a 2-7/16" cut depth. With 10° of rake and 12.5°
of fleam, the 13 tpi hybrid pattern rips efficiently yet also
produces a decent finish on crosscuts. |

The 14" sash saw features the same hybrid tooth
geometry but is scaled for larger work. Not only longer, it
has coarser teeth (11 tpi) and a thicker blade (0.025")
to produce a kerf of 0.035" and a greater depth of cut
(3-9/16"). Overall weight is 1.5 lb, and the closed handle
has a moderately low hang angle. |
