This is hands down, my favorite saw. I have several saws in my collection both Japanese and western saws. Some high end saws from well know producers but this is my ‘go to’ saw. I have both the rip and cross cut saws and both are amazing.
While I think Japanese saws are superior to western saws overall, these out perform all of my other Japanese saw. Super sharp and very comfortable in the hand. More so than the other big name Japaneses saw.
Such a pleasure to use.
