    The teeth on the Katana Boy are made to be filed. Silky even offers the fitting file on Amazon. Might be an idea to ad it to your shop. As far as I know all Silky saws have straight teeth instead of stilted, as the blade is widest on the cut and smaller to the "spine" of the blade. So the cut makes room for the rest of the blade.You could just measure it with caliper on the saws you have. ;) Great video. Almost got some popcorn with it! Greetings from Sweden!

    Love the video but no one in the comments was talking about the little 500(good choice if you're on a budget, need it quick or to support W). But if you're going to go big, I like the katanaboy 650. $192 e bay. From Japan- takes a couple weeks. Love mine for small to medium trees. The silky I use the most is my sugowaza. I also have a sharp bucksaw that I occasionally use on stuff over 8". But the reality is that a Stihl chainsaw comes out at that point.

    daniel hammond My 44 is such an awesome saw. 46 is great for big timber. A lot of professional loggers I know run them. I'd say for the average Homesteader the 44 is all you need. 46 is more powerful, a little better built, more expensive but also heavier. Unless I'm doing firewood, I like my 36 for clearing, log cabin notching and general use because it's so much lighter.

    The advantage to cutting on the pull, that very few people seem to mention is that when you cut on the pull the saw is under tension instead of compression. This means that the blade is pulled straight in line instead of the forces trying to bend it over. As a result you can use a thinner blade, which means a smaller kerf, less wood to cut through, and a lighter saw. In addition friction is reduced because the blade doesn't want to belly out and press into the the sides of the cut. Also pulling means you don't need as strong of a handle/the handles less likely to get loose over time because your pulling in line with the saw where as any wobble in a push saw means you could be pushing out of line with the saw.

    On a Japanese saw, when you pull it, it puts the blade under tension, somehow resulting in a smoother cut, the western saw is for roughcutting logs where the log will be shipped to a mill. Whereas a Japanese saw is for exact dimensioning. Another thing you’ll notice is that the Japanese saw is thinner than the western saw, and cutting on the pull stroke has something to do with it. Both saws have their pros and cons, but I would definitely choose a Japanese saw over a western any day.

    it's probably already covered in the comments but the the pull part of a saw, is where it's most efficient if you're pushing there's always a chance the saw kinks in the kerf or jams. I use Samurai or silky as well as Western cross cuts and the Japanese style pull saws always perform the best. As for the size always think one meter or 100 cm equals approximately 1 yard, so 500mm is more or less 1 and 1/2 feet and that's probably about right for that saw.

    I'm so glad to see that you re-did this test with a more comparable Silky; although, the silky 1000 is twice the length (obviously) as the Silky 500; which is still smaller than the buck saw. I have grown to absolutely love the Silky saws, and truly believe that, taking nostalgia aside, if you were to become familiar with, and use the Silky, you would be a true believer and convert to the platform. I would also like to see you redo your video on machetes. The one you did showed very poor performance. I love axes. I own 7 Grandsfors Bruks saws, in various sizes and for various purposes. Having said that, when it comes to chopping, a good machete wins every time in several categories, ie. speed, safety, fatigue, and tight angled swings. You do have to have experience with it; as you do with both platforms to be good. I challenge you to find someone who is learned in the use of a machete, and do a side by side. I think you may find a use for one in your toolbox so to speak.

I bet he would have had an easier time with that saw if he was using it in the correct manner. Instead of using it like a western style saw, get lower than the log and just focus on the pull stroke in a downward action. Don't focus so much on speed, but getting a powerful downward pull. just my 2 cents.

    I've used both, and they have their advantages and disadvantages. The Japanese saws are great because they make clean cuts, cut fast, and are a bit easier to make accurate cuts with. To me, the big disadvantages of the Japanese saws is that you can resharpen them and you can't use your legs and core to help drive the cut nearly as well as you can with a western style saw. I use pull saws for just about everything, except for big, rough cuts. I have a big 7 tpi Disston saw, and that is my go to if I'm going to cut something like a 4x4 or other large dimensional lumber. It just makes more sense to engage your full body when you're going to be exerting yourself for an extended period of time.

    Cody, great vid! There is an idea around why the Japanese have adopted the pull motion. Most believe it comes to their "idea" of woodworking. In that they are trying to be one with nature or their surroundings. They believe the pulling motion brings the "spirit" of the material to them, allowing them to be "closer" to their work. This is also why Japanese planes are made to be pulled vs pushed.

    I think, if I were doing a lot of cutting, I'd still prefer the western saw, simply because you use more of your body than with the Japanese saw. For small amounts of work, where you want to be more precise, the japanese saw is clearly better.

    Engaging the larger muscles in your body will let you be more efficient and/or deliver more power to the tool. Think of throwing a punch. A really effective punch involves more than just the arm, you swivel the hips, use your core, etc. A punch using just your arm muscles is weaker.

    You need to sharpen your teeth on the "Misery-Whip a bit more. The teeth need to be angled on the point... Once properly sharpened, you need to set the teeth with a tooth setter. Setting the teeth involves bending the tips of the teeth until they are evenly offset to the left and right. I'm seeing only sawdust coming off your "bucksaw," or the "Misery-Whip. You learned why it's called a misery whip. For your saw to be sharp, it should be spitting out sawdust at least twice to three times larger than what I saw. A properly sharpened "Misery-Whip" will spit out noodles instead of wood chip sawdust. I own and use Japanese Saws all the time. They are far superior to American Saws because they cut the wood cleanly and leave a nice smooth finish as you already learned in this video. There is a technique to using japanese saws. It involves pivoting the waist and keeping the logs firmly planted to the ground. The saw user needs to stand either right or left of the saw in use and pivot his whole body while cutting. Pivot fore, and back on the push and pull. Once learned correctly it's almost impossible to get tired using a japanese saw. Nice demo... much more honest. thanks.

    Tane: technique is the determining factor in anything, comparative or not. If you have a better technique than the guy next to you, then you’ll win in a competition. His technique with the Japanese saw definitely had me cringing, he was trying to use it like a western saw, and it’s not designed for that. It’s designed to be used with little downward pressure, and with long strokes, if you let the saw do the work, and you just push and pull, it’ll cut, and it won’t wear you out.

    This is particularly true of the Japanese shop saws, my first ryoba was over 40 years ago and it was a very basic saw as far as bells and whistles go. There were no fancy handles, just a simple wood handle attached to a full tang non-replaceable blade, and fitted with a ratan? wrapping on the handle. there was a fine cut on one side and a coarse cut on the other for both crosscut and rip. When I finally got accustomed to letting up on the push stroke and not laying into the saw on either stroke, I finally found that the cross cut side, specifically, would walk through a general purpose construction grade 2x4 in no time at all. Some of my non-believer friends had challenged me to a similar "cutoff" as you and Brian had these last few videos and I won hands down compared to any other hand saw they bothered to bring out for the "challenge" saw! One after another, I dropped them to their knees and I won almost a case of ....... believe this ....... Coke in the "Battle of the Blades". [Well, I WANTED iced tea but my buds were all into the "strong stuff" at that time] I still have that first Ryoba, minus a few crosscut teeth and sporting a bit of old dried blood here and there, but I have found a healthy respect for the Japanese and their cutting abilities with their saws. Of course, speed cutting was never an option with the Japanese carpenter, he was interested in fit and finish and they still take time to cut precisely and with a certain reverence that many Americans never really found in our woodworking techniques. It is a study in the "Woodworking Journey" of those men who have forgotten more than we will ever know about hand craftsmanship and fit and finish. For them for sure, the thrill is definitely in the "journey" and not the destination". Oh, you can't help but see the look of satisfaction on a real builder's face as he gazes at the finished product, many times fully cut, processed, and fitted and finished with nothing more than basic hand tools but, they simply accept that as normal for the techniques they have accepted to get that final look that is unmistakable in its simplicity, accuracy of fitting, and its overall beauty. I would say that I personally have only seen such simple elegance in some of the Scandinavian carpentry and cabinetry and that was years ago before the *AOTAM took over and mass produced junk became the norm. *[Age Of The Almighty Dollar]
