Japanese saw design and quality meet western preferences for a solid wooden handle and a weightier, yet well balanced, feel in this outstanding range of saws from Gyokucho in Japan.

The kataba will size panels with remarkable accuracy and efficiency, the dozuki super hard is a dedicated crosscut saw used for cutting components to length, halving joints, tenon shoulders etc, and the universal dozuki is a fine smooth cutting saw for dovetails and intricate joinery.

Both saws feature selected quartersawn beech handles, heavier spines for balance, and a smooth, positive folding mechanism with a locking lever to hold the blade in the extended position.
