Japanese Saw 180mm Ryoba Handsaw Compact and Smoothly MOROTEGAKE

I an new to woodworking, and have tried several ways of cutting wood(by hand and with electric tooks. This cut I show in the picture is straight, and easy to make with this tool. The cut edge of plywood ended very smooth. Used it for a month now on plywood and pine, and it is very good, easy and enjoyable.

I heard about this thing on YouTube, I never would have thought it would be good by looking at it. It's truly amazing and so handy to have rip saw and crosscut on the same blade so I can just flip it while I am working. This is the smaller saw for medium/small work, I plan to get a large one too for bigger jobs (though I usually just go to a power saw if it's a large enough job). Looking at the construction of this tool, I have to wonder how long it will last as it appears kind of fragile, but Wranglerstar on YouTube seems to have used the heck out of his for a while now and hasn't had any trouble. We shall see.

I bought this saw because is has two types of blades/cutting teeth (when compared to a dovetail saw that I bought recently) that I thought would be more aggressive when rip cutting. It worked out just the way I thought. The fine cut side has a larger bite than the dovetail saw, and cuts faster and still leaves a fine edge. I just started to use it so take these comments with that in mind.

Looks good unfortunately Handle is fragile if you are not careful and can break. Blade is ok for both sides, cut are clear and accurate.

Great product

Amazing Hand tool .... Very light, slides right through even on laminated tick MDF. Was amazed how I managed to cut straight lines on long pieces of wood. Dovetails cuts are almost a piece of cake but I'm still working on my skills. I like the size as well it render the regular hand saw as obsolete ....

Handy little saw, but I recommend spending a little more on a better product. The teeth on mine were destroyed from one cut on a plastic gutter--plastic! I would be hard pressed to see how this could cut any sort of hard wood. Additionally, having used this on some soft woods prior to destroying it on my plastic gutter, the saw is difficult to keep straight through a simple cross-cut, whereas my buddies same saw (different brand) has no issues with this, or cutting plastic gutters.

Cuts fast and clean. Makes flush cuts really easy. I'm concerned that I'm going to bend it.. But I haven't yet and it's cheap enough that replacing a bent blade wouldn't be a problem. Love it!

Es excelente, tiene muy buen filo, es más delgada de lo que pensé, pero no afecta en lo más mínimo.

Alles in allem eine recht gute Säge. Sie ist für eine Japan sähe etwas kurz und auch nicht allzu genau. Nachteil allgemein von Japan sägen ist das man nichts kurvige sägen kann. Der schöne Holzgriff ist mit einer grauenhaften plastik Folie umzogen, welche sich zum Glück entfernen ließ. Auch eine gute Hülle zum schützen des sägeblatts und zum Schutz vor Verletzungen ist dabei.

Più che un'arnese di falegnameria, un'esperienza della Mistica Scintoista.La sega affetta dolcemente il legno cantando, generando un finissimo pulviscolo mentre si addentra nel taglio con una sensualità inaspettata. Le anime di centinaia di samurai sembrano parlarci dal passato della terra del Sole Nascente e ci trasmettono il loro onore e la loro fierezza. Segare il legno diventa armonia.

Excellent saw, took a little while to get used to cutting on the pull stroke, its thin so accuracy is awesome when cutting dovetails etc, the handle comes untreated which is a bonus to me as I could treat it with boiled linseed oil.
