Pax Fret-Wire Saw

For cutting fret slots in acoustic guitar fingerboards, the fine luthier's saw is made in Sheffield, England, with a spring-steel blade, polished brass fittings and a comfortable turned hardwood handle.

The teeth are set to cut a 0.021" kerf, accommodating standard medium-gauge fret wire. The 10" long, 16 tpi blade cuts on the pull stroke and has a brass spine for rigidity, is through-drilled in two places for mounting a shop-made wooden depth stop, and has a hang hole.
