Hand saws


The handsaw was designed for precise woodworking and is an indispensable tool for many carpenters and DIY enthusiasts. Thanks to its special blade thickness and width, the saw blade remains extremely stable. Different lengths offer flexibility for different applications. All handsaws operate in push and pull mode, allowing for fast work. High-quality tool steel is the preferred material for the blade and teeth, guaranteeing robustness and durability. The saws' carefully set teeth ensure precise cuts, even in demanding wood projects. This makes the handsaw a versatile tool for both rough and fine sawing work.

What toothing do I need for my saw?

The tooth pitch of a saw determines its cutting performance and quality. A larger tooth pitch is suitable for rough work, a smaller one for finer work. Regular sharpening and the right choice of blade optimize performance. The saw's tooth pitch is measured in "tooth per inch" (TPI), the number of teeth per inch.

Protection and care for your handsaw

Ensure your saw lasts a long time and remains reliable! Before sawing, check your workpiece for nails or screws to avoid tooth breakage. Always keep the saw blade clean by handling it with a cloth or gloves. Occasionally, you can also use a little oil and a soft cloth to remove dirt.

Crosscut vs. Ripcut – The differences explained

When choosing the right saw, the type of toothing is crucial: With the ripcut toothing, you cut along the grain of the wood. These saws have a few large teeth that "rip" the wood like an axe – perfect for fast, straight cuts through soft or solid wood. However, the saw blade can jam more easily if the wood fibers are relaxed. The crosscut toothing is ideal for cuts across the grain. With smaller, finer teeth, it cuts effortlessly through many fibers.

Everything you need to know about hand saws for wood

A handsaw is a manually operated tool used to cut materials such as wood, metal, plastic, and other materials. Depending on the type and design of the saw, a handsaw can be used for heavy-duty but very delicate and precise work.

How does a saw work?
During sawing, the teeth of the sawblade penetrate the material and remove fine chips, creating a groove or cutting line. Depending on the type of saw, this cutting process occurs either continuously or in discrete movements.

Types of hand saws

There are different types of hand saws optimized for different purposes. We've listed them here.

The foxtail saw

The foxtail saw is the classic hand saw and is suitable for cutting logs. The saw blade is wide and typically between 40 and 60 cm long. The saw can be used for either cross or rip cuts.

The fine saw

Fine-tooth saws are ideal for precise work where every millimeter counts. The saw blade is usually rectangular and is well stabilized by an attached guide. The handle of the saw is mounted at an angle to facilitate sawing along edges. The saw blade is relatively stiff and equipped with fine teeth.

The folding saw

Folding saws are particularly popular with outdoor enthusiasts, bushcrafters, and even gardeners and landscapers. They can be easily folded into a handy format and conveniently taken anywhere.

The advantages of a handsaw

A handsaw offers many advantages that make it an indispensable tool for both hobbyists and professionals.

Independence from electricity and batteries:
Because hand saws are manually operated, they can be used anywhere—whether in the garden, in the forest, or on a construction site. They require neither electricity nor batteries, making them an essential tool, especially in outdoor areas.

Silent operation:
Unlike motor-driven saws, hand saws operate virtually silently. This makes them ideal for working in noise-sensitive environments, such as residential areas.

High security:
Manual operation gives you maximum control over the cut. This reduces the risk of accidents and allows for more precise work—especially with delicate materials or detailed work.

Flexibility:
Hand saws are ideal for fine work and sawing in hard-to-reach places and are therefore often the best choice.

The saw blade – what do I need to consider before buying?

Choosing the right saw blade is crucial for the quality of your cut and the efficiency of your work. Here are some important points to consider:

Perforation:
The tooth pitch of the saw blade determines the cutting quality. Fine teeth are ideal for fine and precise cuts, while coarse teeth are better suited for fast material removal. The tooth pitch is specified in TPI (teeth per inch).

Sheet width:
The width of the saw blade should always be slightly larger than the cut to avoid jamming during the sawing process. A wider cut ensures the blade can move freely without damaging the wood in any way.

Tooth position:
Many high-quality hand saws feature set teeth. This means the teeth are curved alternately to the right and left. This results in a wider cut, preventing the saw blade from jamming in the wood and making the sawing process easier for the user.

Conclusion:
The right handsaw and the right saw blade make all the difference – whether for rough woodwork or fine detail work. Want to learn more about saws? Then read more in ourBlog article about saws.
