Optimized for material 1/2'' and thinner, this saw is designed for cutting fine joinery. The teeth are set at 0.003'' per side and are filed with a 15° rake and a 60° included angle. They also have alternating 15° bevels that act as small knives to sever wood fibers. This blade geometry provides a fluid starting cut followed by a smooth and accurate final cut with almost no tearout.
Made of high-carbon steel, the 22 TPI blade is 9-1/4'' long and 0.020'' thick with a cutting depth of about 1-9/16''. The molded spine incorporates stainless-steel powder for weight, glass fiber for stiffness and an advanced polymer resin binder. The open-grip hardwood handle is comfortable in any hand, even small ones. The saw is 14-1/4'' long overall. Patented. Made in Canada.
