Pax handsaws were first developed in 1776 and have built a reputation for quality and performance since.
This Pax 22 rip saw, 4.5 tpi, is ground and set for cutting along the grain; for cross-grain work you'd want a saw with a higher tooth count and different tooth geometry.
A breasted, taper-ground blade thins toward the back and curves along its length, which reduces binding and keeps the saw lighter in the cut.
The handle is steamed beech, finished in two tones and fastened with brass rivets for a secure, comfortable grip.
The blade measures 22" long, giving enough length for long rip cuts in a single stroke.
