The saws on this page are good general-purpose saws if you do not need the super-smoothness of a fine-cut saw, but do want the ability to do some slant- and rip-cutting as well as straightforward crosscut work. Having said that, any of these saws will leave a considerably finer cut edge than a traditional Western saw with the same TPI. All saws on this page have fewer than 15 TPI: if you want a saw with more teeth per inch please have a look at my fine universal saw page. Click here for a page containing links to a variety of demonstration videos, manuals and data sheets to help you find the right tool for your project. If the saw you are interested in is out of stock, why not bookmark this page so that you can come back in a couple of weeks to check again. Alternatively please feel free to e-mail me for further details or to reserve a saw from my next consignment.

I believe this to be a best-selling z-saw in Japan, where users are more used to the traditional straight handle than our pistol-grip type. A great general-purpose saw, normally supplied with the rattan-wound wooden handle. If you are less traditional you can also choose a straight plastic-covered aluminium handle (colour may vary) or a plastic pistol-grip handle. This blade will also fit the fantastic puff handle. |

A great fast-cutting saw, this. The standard handle is the one shown (but colour may vary: also available in purple) but like all screw-fitting blades it will fit any screw-fitting handle. A scabbard is also available. |

Another excellent fast-cutting saw, this time with a Teflon-coated blade and the option of a wooden scabbard to protect the saw. The blade angle can also be freely adjusted for when access is difficult. |

Very similar in appearance to the H-265 universal saw at the top of this page, but the blade and handle are both slightly longer. The blade is also a bit coarser for faster cutting. Normally supplied with the rattan-covered wooden handle shown, but will also fit 330mm rubberised aluminium handles (white, orange and purple) if you have one. |

The standard handle is the one shown but like all screw-fitting blades it will fit any screw-fitting handle. A good all-round saw if you do not often need a super-fine finish. |

The coarsest and therefore fastest blade on this page: great for cutting treated timber like fence posts. The blade will fit any screw-fitting handle but the standard one is as shown. |

And don't forget that some of my folding saws and saws for green timber are also good for general purpose woodwork.
