This is a standard, very popular dozuki model with a steel spine for better stiffness and precision. Fine toothing and a thin blade give a very narrow kerf (0.37mm!) Recommended wherever accuracy and straight cutting are required.
The metal spine guarantees excellent stability when cutting, reduces the risk of breaking or bending the blade, but also limits the depth of cut. Excellent saw for making shallow cuts, especially recommended for making joints, tenons, dovetail joints, precise cuts ..

NOTE: handles made of natural rattan may have discoloration and slight cavities - this is a natural feature of rattan and does not affect the operation of the saw in any way.
As with all Japanese saws, all cuts are made only when the saw is pulled towards you. As a result, Japanese saws have blades that are thinner, lighter and smoother, resulting in faster cuts.
