A keyhole saw is used for fine trimming in cabinetry or roughing work in carving, with a tapered blade that reaches into restricted areas a standard saw can't enter.
It's only 1/2" deep at the handle, tapering further toward the tip so it can reach into tight corners and restricted spaces.
It cuts a 17 tpi crosscut pattern with a 0.055" kerf, suited to fine trim work rather than fast stock removal.
It measures 12" overall, slightly shorter than Lee Valley's other Japanese detail saws, with a stained paulownia handle and a protective vinyl case for storage.
