Hand Saws
| PLEASE NOTE CURRENT WAIT TIMES LISTED WITH EACH SAW A bit about my saws: Each plate is cut from coiled 1095 spring steel, ground perfectly flat (or taper ground for panel saws), toothed, hand sharpened, and hammer set. This is all done under one roof. Currently, all backs are folded brass. I've made and used slotted backs in the past...they work fine but I prefer the folded backs for the traditional look and ease of installation. Folded backs will absorb some shock if the saw is dropped (still though, try not to drop it). Everything you see is built from raw stock in my shop. I like the idea of affordable hand saws- no need to drive up prices by outsourcing the parts. This also gives me an in depth understanding of saw making. There is a difference between buying a set of parts for assembly and learning to make all the parts yourself.
Please contact me first before making and international purchase.

24” Panel Saw
Need to make a big cut? A good place to start is with a big saw…
-Taper Ground
-24” X 7”
Wait time: seven to eight weeks

20” Panel Saw
A nice medium weight saw that can handle large cuts but won’t tear up a 4/4 board. This is my favorite saw…
-Taper Ground
-20” X 6” Plate (.03”)
Here is a great workhorse for your shop. Combining an 18” toothline with a taper ground plate provides the woodworker with a nimble/capable saw. Currently, I’ll be offering the saw @10ppi with hybrid filing. Whether you’re crosscutting or ripping, this saw is up to the task.
-Taper Ground
18” X 6” (.03”) Plate
Of all the saws I make, the halfback is the one I’m asked about the most. Having a short back increases the rigidity of the plate which allows for easier tracking of a layout line. Having over half the plate unsupported allows the saw to make deeper cuts than a traditional backsaw. Aside from being functional- they look awesome.

Benchtop Saws
| A handy saw to have close-by. Not built for fine joinery work but great for breaking down stock at the bench. Pulling out the full size panel saw for every wide board won't be necessary with one of these in your lineup. Light, compact, sharp, and cool.
