Zona SA35/300 Homecraft Saw

I was looking at a few similar saws when I had a senile moment, got my sizes mixed up and ended up buying this small razor saw instead of it's larger cousin the 35/380. For the £9 it had cost, I figured it wasn't worth the hassle of a return and decided to hang onto it. Little did I know it would change my life... okay so that might be a bit extreme. Point is, it's a really nice saw. Okay? It's performs well, stays sharp, it's extremely affordable and comfortable to use even for long periods of time, etc. I love that it cuts on the pull because it's that little bit easier control at the start of a cut, although I can understand why some people find it a little strange. If you really want it's not too difficult to remove the saw plate and flip it around. I've owned it for a year and resharpened it once by running a small, very fine-cut triangle file across each tooth once perpendicularly - I'm sure there are better methods (especially if you're sharpening a saw that's properly blunt) but that works well enough for giving the teeth a quick touch up.

Perfect for hobbyist... so easy to use..excellent cuts every time. Very happy with purchase 😀 Use it for making 1/12th scale furniture but also used it to cut 8mm wood to fix dresser rails. Can't recommend it enough.

I bought for cutting fret slots into a guitar neck. It does a perfectly good job and the back is stiff enough to keep the blade straight and accurate. Minus one star simply because the wooden handle feels a little cheap in the hand.

I use this saw for sawing balsa wood which I use for modelling. It is an excellent small modelling saw which cuts very cleanly through soft balsa wood and will also easily cut through harder wood.

Comes in very handy for small jobs and modelling

Amazing saw. I needed a thin but strong saw to make cuts in a 3d print. A friend suggested one of these when I said to him how I wasn’t looking forward to trying to cut with a junior hacksaw. Perfect straight line. Wonderfully sharp.

Excellent fine saw for detail work with a straight and narrow cut. Nice and sharp but it took a little getting used to as this one cuts on the pull stroke, something I am familiar with on Japanese saws but not on a backed tenon-type saw. A comfortable and well finished handle. A useful tool for small detailed work and modelmaking. .

Very nice saw, well balanced, fine kerf and smooth cut. Bought for doing small dovetails and works a treat.

Ótimo produto. Lembre-se de zelar bem e passar um óleo periodicamente para evitar ferrugem.

Exactly as shown

Why should I buy something that is full of rust?

I bought this to replace a little Exacto saw that never really felt *sharp*, but had teeth and could cut through thin pieces with some effort. So my expectations weren't high. But this thing feels like a proper saw, just tiny. Really pleasant to use!

Nice
