Razorsaw Dovetail Dozuki 240mm (rattan handle)

Blade: 240mm × 0.3mm, 19.5 TPI

Cut: Pull stroke

Format: Dovetail dozuki (spined) with rattan handle

Replacement blade: RSS-372

Made in: Japan

The dovetail dozuki — 240mm of rigid-spined blade and 19.5 TPI for joinery you can hand to a customer without an apology.

Japanese saws cut on the pull stroke. The blade stays in tension under load, which is why a dozuki blade can be 0.3mm thick and still track dead-straight through hardwoods.

The 372 is the classic dovetail / tenon dozuki. The hard spine running along the back of the blade keeps the cut straight where it matters most, on visible joints. 19.5 TPI is a touch coarser than the deep-cut fine-finish variants, which lets it cut a bit faster while still leaving the kind of surface you’d happily glue without further work. Hard-coated steel for corrosion resistance, rattan-wrapped handle that warms up in the hand over the course of a session.

Razorsaw — Japan’s craft-saw standard

Razorsaw has been crafting saws to traditional Japanese standards out of Tokyo since 1969. Impulse-hardened, non-resharpenable cutting edges — when the blade finally tires, swap it out. The matching blade for this saw is RSS-372.

Pairs with: the matching replacement blade — swap it when the teeth dull and the handle keeps going. See the rest of our Japanese saws.
