Made in: Japan

Razorsaw Miniature Kataba — a 180mm Japanese pull-saw built for detail work in tight spaces.

A small kataba for fine joinery — dovetails, dowels, peg-trimming, small box work, instrument making. Short blade gives you control in tight quarters where a full-size saw doesn’t fit, and the 16 TPI tooth pitch leaves a clean cut line that needs no chisel pare-back.

Specs

• Blade length: 180mm

• Cut direction: Pull stroke

Why a miniature kataba

The thinner 0.5mm blade and finer tooth pitch make this the saw for cabinetwork, luthiery, model-making, and any joinery where the cut line is the final visible surface. The pull-stroke action keeps the thin blade taut so there’s no wandering or buckling — get a flat, square, finish-quality cut every time.

Razorsaw quality

Impulse-hardened teeth hold a sharp edge through hardwood after hardwood. Made in Japan to the standards that have made Razorsaw the working professional’s choice for forty years.

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