They combine the best characteristics of this fine classic joinery saw with those of state-of-the-art materials and construction methods. The tooth pattern on the thin high-carbon steel blades provide a good balance between cutting action and surface finish. The design of the Bubinga wooden handle has been developed to give good power transfer while still allowing a three or four finger grip for precise control. The rip saw is optimised for the fast accurate cutting of tenon cheeks and similar cutting operations with the grain. The rip saw has 9tpi with a 14° rake using the typical 60° included angle, set is the same as on the crosscut saw.
