The large carpenter’s saw with an extremely aggressive tooth design belongs to the Kataba family, one of the most popular types of Japanese hand saws. This saw is perfect for general cutting tasks, such as cutting through thick beams. It's a must-have tool for any construction site or workshop. The saw blade is highly flexible and features teeth only on one side. The saw is equipped with a high-quality two-component D-handle for optimal grip.
The Pull-Cut System:
Our large carpenter’s saw works with a pull-cut mechanism. Unlike western saws, which are operated with a pushing motion, Japanese saws are pulled. This allows for highly precise and controlled cuts.
The Saw Blade:
Despite its large blade, this Japanese saw is much thinner and more flexible compared to western saws. With its aggressive tooth design, it cuts through wood quickly. Additionally, it requires less effort and ensures smooth, flush cuts, making it easy to remove outstanding workpieces. The saw blade is made of high-quality carbon steel with a chrome-plated surface, ensuring longevity and stability.
Special Tooth Design:
The "SHARK" tooth design with three cutting edges is extremely sharp, as the tooth tips are diamond-ground. The coarse and highly aggressive tooth design allows for fast and efficient cutting through wood. This saw features 10 TPI (teeth per inch), making it ideal for general and fast woodworking tasks.
