Kataba Cross Cut Saw – No. 293 – 180 mm

Gyokucho Razorsaw® Kataba No. 293 is a single-edged crosscut saw with no back support and a rounded tip for starting cuts mid panel. We liken saws of the 180 mm/ 7″ length to small English Gent Saws because they’re short enough to carry in a toolbox or bag and good at cutting tenons and dovetails, yet they are way more useful because they can handle a wide variety of general carpentry tasks. Because it has no back, the blade is thicker and a bit stiffer to make long cuts easier. Impulse hardened, super sharp teeth are durable and make short work of any task. Saw is fitted with a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) handle for a comfortable and improved grip in all conditions. Features: Gyokucho Razorsaw® feature blades filled with remarkably sharp teeth of incredible durability. All blades are coated with the latest in anti-corrosion technology products. Even a little corrosion can reduce performance by increasing friction and decreasing sharpness. Comfortable, ergonomic TPE handle (power grip) improves handling and comfort.
