Why Use A Japanese Pull Saw?
Harder Steel – Stays Sharp Longer
Cuts On Pull Action – Higher Cutting Accuracy
Requires Less Effort – Thinner blade is Light Weight To Use
The FL115 is a high precision flush cut saw. The teeth of a flush cut saw have no set, they are perfectly in line with the plate. It means they can cut tight into a corner without the risk of scratching the surrounding surface. They are suitable for flush trimming of wooden dowels and plugs.
The V-Toothed 115mm blade is cable of making the finest cuts with amazing accuracy. The highly flexible blade allows access into tight corners.
A wooden handle provides a comfortable grip.
Woodturners use these saws as an alternative parting tool.

The most noticeable design feature of a Japanese saw is that the teeth are angled backwards towards the handle. When in use, the cutting action is on the pull-stroke hence Japanese saws are often referred to as pull saws. The saw is designed to cut as you draw it through the timber, totally the opposite to a traditional western saw. The benefit of the pull saw design, is that as much pressure as desired can be applied to the cut without fear of the blade buckling. This gentle method of sawing also ensures far more accuracy and a much thinner blade can be used which equals less resistance and a faster cut.
When a Japanese saw is at work, the blade is under tension rather than compression as is the case with a Western pattern saw. As a result, the blade of a Japanese saw can be made far thinner and of much harder steel.
