Description

Tapered saw blade.

Advantages of tapered saw blades

Less weight on the saw blade
Centre of mass is closer to the handle for a more balanced saw
Faster and more aggressive cutting; if the back of the saw is held horizontally during cutting, each tooth is lower than the one before, resulting in faster stock removal

Ideal saw for cutting tenon shoulders. Medium-fine teeth that cut on the push stroke for fast but precise cuts across the grain.

Lie-Nielsen^® Saws

Sharpened by hand

Western saws of exceptional quality, optimised for specific uses. The blade teeth of Swedish spring steel are first milled and set on the machine and then fine-tuned by hand. Each saw undergoes an intensive cutting test before it leaves the factory. Handles of American cherry, secured with traditional split-nut screws, and a solid brass back complete these premium saws.
