Blade Option:
Choose an option to view item availability.
These are superb saws for job-site use, combining portability with the clean, efficient cuts of a traditional kataba.
Their compact folding design not only makes them easy to stow in a tool bag or pocket but also protects the teeth from being dulled through contact with other tools. Taper ground to reduce binding, the backless blades permit through-cuts yet have enough stiffness for good accuracy and control, while their slim profile makes them easy to maneuver.
Each saw has a strong, lightweight anodized aluminum handle with a comfortable over-molded grip. The two-position lock lets you set the blade in line with the handle for normal use, or angled upward for hand clearance when cutting close to the floor or other obstructions.
Offered with an 8" (15 tpi) blade or a 10 1/2" (18 tpi) blade with greater reach and cutting capacity.
Replacement blades available separately.
