Q: Will this saw damage the surface next to what I'm trimming?
No. The flexible blades have no tooth set, so they can be pressed flush to the work to trim projections such as dowels or plugs without marring the adjacent surface.
60T2221 - Japanese Flush-Cut Saw, Single Edge
Style:
Choose an option to view item availability.

With flexible blades and no tooth set, these saws can be pressed flush to the work to trim projections without damaging adjacent surfaces. The fine impulse-hardened teeth yield an exceptionally smooth cut, and the thin blade (0.01" thick) speeds through wood with little effort.
The single-edge saw has a 4" long, 26 tpi blade with a narrow, tapered shape that permits precise cuts in tight spots. The double-edge saw gives you the option of a fast-cutting 20 tpi tooth pattern on one edge of the 5" long blade, or a 26 tpi tooth pattern on the other edge for finer cuts.
Both saws cut on the pull stroke and are fitted with unfinished beech handles.
Made in Japan.
