Made in: Japan

The full-size Japanese ryoba — 300mm of double-edged blade that handles framing cuts and finer crosscuts on the same saw.

Japanese saws cut on the pull stroke. The blade stays in tension, which lets it be much thinner than a Western saw without buckling. Less effort, finer kerf, better control.

The ryoba is the double-edged member of the family: one side rip teeth (6 TPI here, for cutting with the grain), the other crosscut (9 TPI, for across or end grain). The 300mm blade is the larger of the two ryoba sizes we stock, suited to post and beam work, frame carpentry, ripping panels down to width, and any cut where the 240mm feels short. A pivoting joint between blade and tang lets you angle the blade to the handle for cuts in tight or overhead positions.

Razorsaw — Japan’s craft-saw standard

Razorsaw blades are impulse-hardened, which means the cutting edges hold an edge far longer than a conventional saw. When the teeth eventually dull they cannot be resharpened — they get replaced. The matching blade for this saw is RSS-616; the handle is built to last.

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