Q: What is this saw best for?
It is ideal for fine joinery in stock 1/2" and thinner, where its 22 tpi blade leaves a clean edge.
05T0605 - Veritas Small Fine-Tooth Crosscut Saw, 22 tpi
Optimized for material 1/2" and thinner, this saw is designed for fine joinery projects. The teeth are set at 0.003” per side and are filed with a 15° rake and a 60° included angle. They also have alternating 15° bevels that act as small knives to sever wood fibers. This blade geometry provides a fluid starting cut followed by a smooth and accurate final cut with almost no tear-out.
Made of high-carbon steel, the 22 tpi blade is 9 1/4” long and 0.020” thick with a cut depth of about 1 9/16”. The molded spine incorporates stainless-steel powder for weight, glass fiber for stiffness, and an advanced polymer resin binder.
The open-grip hardwood handle is comfortable in any hand, even small ones. 14 1/4” long overall. Patented. Made in Canada.
