SUIZAN Flush Cut Saw 5" - Professional Japanese Pullsaw Ryoba Double Edge Handsaw Woodworking Tools

I'm in my 60's. I have small hands that aren't very strong. They've never been strong. Jar openers are my hands' friends. Using larger saws often results in me screwing up the cut as the saw tries to bounce all over the place. I decided to purchase a Japanese-made pull saw (avoiding the Chinese-made cheaper varieties). The blade is so thin it bends with ease and looking at it without trying it, you'd think it's not going to be able to do much. So far I've cut and shaped PVC trim to fit perfectly and thicker aluminum trim for the bathroom shower door frame WITH EASE AND ACCURACY! To cut the shower frame aluminum U accurately, I simply used 2 bands of painter's tape around it with a thin line between. The saw stayed on point and my cut looked as clean as the factory cut! This saw is SHARP! It's easy to use (only pull toward you, never push). It is SO comfortable in my hands and my arms aren't getting tired when doing cuts. It seems very versatile as far as what you can cut with it. I'm SUPER impressed. This is going to make small repair jobs around the house much easier and quicker. Wish I'd bought it 20 years ago! Japan, you rock!

Very sharp, thin, and flexible blade. Great for flush cutting dowel ends, etc. Comfortable to use and good quality, sturdy construction. After seeing how fast and smooth this cuts, and how well it's made, I ordered one of the larger versions for making bigger cuts. Very impressive compared to the western push cut saws I'm used to using!

you know, like your typical American-made hand saw. If you manhandle this, it will bend. It is, however, very forgiving on the learning curve. I’d wanted one of these for a LONG time, I thought, and for the price, needing something to make flush cuts in wooden plugs - and a LOT of trim/molding I found out later - I thought I’d buy one. First off, this is SHARP! First day, right out of the package, I somehow managed to cut my palm on the blade and I didn’t even feel it, just noticed red on my hand. Give this a LOT of respect. The cut on PULL design took about five seconds to get used to. It’s counterintuitive to how western saws work but once you use it, you’ll wonder why ALL saws aren’t made this way. Push-pull, different philosophies, same net result - this just seems easier. What I find this most useful for is making very fine, very thin cuts in wood trim and molding where the use of a handsaw would be awkward, or a chopsaw not giving me the fine control I need for smaller cuts or on smaller pieces of wood. This is very comfortable in the hand and makes very accurate cuts - the kerf is so fine I have to get higher power reading glasses to make sure I’m cutting ON or next to a 0.5mm mechanical pencil line - not that a cut that thin would make that much difference in fitting on the kind of stuff I work on, but I like to know where I’m cutting. This is small enough, light enough, to fit in your tool bag and get lost in there. One tip, and I don’t know for sure if this is stainless or not, but I folded a piece of paper in the plastic tube it came packaged in then soaked it with an anti-rust product. Cheap insurance and less chance of the teeth getting dinged/dented/dulled. One of my favorite tools now. Collect the set, save ‘em, trade ‘em!

Excellent saw, well worth the cost - Invest a little more in the version they make with a non-fixed (replaceable) blade! I bought this saw and squeezed years of life out of it (woodworking and beyond) and probably subjected it to some unfair abuse, but it held up remarkably well. It still cuts quickly and easily through just about anything, but I can feel that the edges are both fading. Unfortunately, the blade is fixed in the handle with rivets, not screws, so I can’t (easily, at least) just replace the failing saw blade. Suizan sells almost the exact same saw with a removable blade, as well as the replacement blades for them… So why sell this throwaway version at all???

I recently used the Japanese Style Pull Saw for flush cutting dowel, and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed! This saw is an absolute game-changer when it comes to flush cuts. The "pull saw" design of this product means that it cuts through materials via a pulling motion, resulting in a cleaner and smoother cut than what you typically get with a "push saw." I was able to achieve precise, flush cuts with minimal effort, thanks to the lightweight design and high-quality Japanese steel blade. Another thing I love about this saw is its versatility. With a robust blade for hardwood and a blade for softwood, it can cut through a wide range of woods, including oak, sandalwood, ebony, maple, and pine. The quality of the cuts remained consistent, regardless of the type of wood I was working with. It's also worth noting that the Japanese Style Pull Saw is made in Japan by master craftsmen with a long history of craft-making tradition. The attention to detail and quality control is evident in every aspect of this product. Overall, I highly recommend the Japanese Style Pull Saw to anyone in need of a versatile and reliable saw for their woodworking projects. Its unique design and high-quality construction make it a top contender in the market, and the ease of use and precision it provides make it a must-have for any woodworking enthusiast.

First, I love my power tools, I literally have almost every type of power tool for woodworking, BUT... During a project, drilled some holes out of line. Found a solution using plugs. The video used a Japanese saw, not exactly this one, but this saw worked perfectly. It was easy to maneuver, and cut like a hot knife through butter without gouging the wood. Holy cow, makes me want to try a block plane. LOL! SUIZAN Japanese Flush Cut Saw Small Hand 5 Inch Pull for Hardwood and Softwood Woodworking tools Trim. Exactly what it does, small, light, accurate and sharp as all get out...Absolutely Amazing!

This pullsaw is extremely high quality and makes excellent fine flush cuts. I used this specifically to cut out wood plugs to cover/fill pocket holes and countersunk screws to conceal the screws/fasteners in my wood pieces.

Cuts smooth and clean, I prefer pull cuts for most projects, this one works well.

The best widely available saw, sharp, precise cuts, Blade is hard too," Mostly we use it for flush cutting the plugs in joineries. It makes the final sanding and finishing too much easier.

Bought this to cut some oak, and as another review mentioned, it cuts like a warm knife through butter. By putting 0 pressure and letting the blade do its thing, it made a very precise thin cut with no effort. When I received it I was a little skeptical that a saw this small could go through oak easily, but it convinced me very quickly. What also surprised me is how smooth the wood was after it was cut. As is typical for Japanese saws, it cuts on the pull motion instead of the push, which took 10 secs to retrain my muscle memory. This blade is very bendy, and I found if I used too much pressure, it jiggled like Santa's belly, which is a great indicator to ease up on the pressure.

Coupe parfaite ,scier en tirant mais sa vient vite

Hay que acostumbrarse a usarla porque en vez de empujar y cortar, debe usarse al revés, cortar tirando. Pero es muy eficiente y extremadamente flexible.
