If you can only buy one saw, then how about a Japanese Ryoba? The Ryoba is not a backsaw, instead it has a rip cut on one edge and a x-cut on the other. The thin kerf makes it suitable for finer work, yet is able to quickly slice through large dimension timber.

Awesome! I will add the caveat that for fine dovetail work, the rip side of a Ryoba is usually too coarse, but then it might be worth experimenting with the x-cut side, which commonly has a higher tooth count.

I'd second the recommendation of a ryoba, especially since they're cheap enough that you could get one and a dozuki to go with it for less than the price of a single veritas carcass saw, and they'd cover you for pure handtool work as well as handtool + machine stuff.

A counter-point would be that as Matt mentioned, the blades in Japanese saws are not easily sharpened but instead are replaced, which means that there is an ongoing cost (is it really just one saw when the blade has to be replaced?), whereas the Western style saw can be frequently sharpened or even modified many times.

I love my Ryoba but it can't beat the dovetail for finer joinery. I like having that added control of a stiff blade when doing finer work. The Ryoba just can't do as good of job. Don't get me wrong, the Ryoba can tackle 80% of a woodworker's needs; especially once they get talented with the blade. However, the finer work of a dovetail likes to have that additional rigidity.

Nice video! I am a Carpenter/joiner who loves using antique tools. I am also a collector of early Disston saws. I have 21 panel, crosscut & rip saws. Most of the rip saws have a thumb hole handle. All these are between 1896-1917 in date. I also have tenon and dovetail saws. One of the tenon saws is from 1860. Dave.

Hey man I’m amazed at how easy you make it for beginners, and yet not too boring for those who know the basics.

I started out with a Harbor Freight "Ryoba" and got a lot of good work done with it. For $10 it lasted me 18 months before I was missing too many teeth to keep trying to use it. I upgraded to better quality Japanese saws, Ryoba, Dozuki and flush cut. I still use them today but I won't be replacing anymore blades. I transitioned to Western style saws because of the long term cost. I do this for a living, which makes my circumstances different than a hobbyist because my tools see a lot more use. I learned to properly sharpen & set the teeth, change the TPI and even convert from crosscut to rip. So instead of having to replace the blade every few months like I was on my Japanese saws, I simply stop and sharpen now. I can't speak to the Veritas or Lie-Nielsen saws because I couldn't justify the cost to myself... I went with old school Disston & Pax saws (less than $50 each saw, most under $20). They needed some work to get them up to par but after that, it's the normal sharpening routine. The only new saw I bought was a gent saw because you can pick them up in functional condition for under $30. I get the same results as I did with the Japanese saws and I'm not throwing away steel now.

Took me an embarrassingly long time to understand this…… RIP Cut.

I really love the different Japanese saws - the Dozuki, Ryoba, Kataba and mini Kugihiki. It is way easier to cut straight lines because of the mechanics of the pull compared to the push - and flush cuts. I hardly never use my Western style saws anymore.

Best video on the topic I've seen so far, subscription added

just watched a bunch of your videos. has me super excited about getting into working with hand tools!

Perfect video. Answered all my questions.

Hi Matt. Thanks for your great videos - really enjoying them! I second groundhogssplit suggestion of a Ryoba combination Japanese saw AND a Japanese dovetail saw. With those two saws you can accomplish the finest woodwork right up to large tenons and crosscutting huge slabs.

Baring a fairly genetic Spear & Jackson tenon saw as my first saw on which my experience to that point was based.....I bought the Veritas Dovetail saw and what a difference! The Carcass x-cut soon followed.......and it was then i realised I had a problem.......I must have them all.

I really like that you put in context - specifically furniture making - BEFORE you render your opinions. Do you know how many videos there are presenting the “ultimate cross cut sled” without 1 of them saying “here’s what’s best if you are doing X”? Keep up the good work.

Through luck, I bought the dovetail and carcase saw that Matt recommended. But I also have some of those old panel saws from my Dad's garage. Use what you have! They are easy to sharpen and work well. A lot of things depend upon one's setup, too. My shop isn't big enough to rip an 8' board through the bandsaw. That requires about 18 feet of space! No problem with the old 8pt ripsaw. The bandsaw is faster, lol. One of those old panel saws was much smaller than the rip saw, and has a finer tooth. It's great! But seriously, use what you have.

Props for the video cutting technique when you made the saws disappear. Very swish! Great video. Thanks

I have been experimenting with using hand saws in a bit finer tooth (9PPI) and up with a rip pattern tooth only. They work pretty well, and it was generally practiced in the past this way. Saves the need to have double saws in every size, and with a marking knife those rip cut teeth have no problems crosscutting either. It's nice to have 5 of everything but I am trying to keep the kit down, this seems to really work well.

Useful, thanks Matt. Hadn't considered using my bandsaw for cutting tenons before.

Very informative and well prewented useful information. Thank you I learned a lot.

I have a Veritas dovetail system that’s includes a Japanese style saw with no back. I find that the blade can wobble and vibrate, and it also will bend where it joins the handle, whereas with my Veritas backed saw it stays straight and cuts through the wood like butter.

Great job!! You create every time some interesting Videos!

Informative videos as always....ta Could you show the tooth pattern up close for Rip and X-cut....I have a few saws at home but they are not labelled as to what the type of cut they are. Would have been handy to have seen a close up of the teeth pattern for identification reasons. Cheers

Enjoyed learning from your teachings, I’ve just finished watching a few of your videos. And I was looking for information on a number 5 1/2 no name plane. The bevel on the cutter looked extremely small hence the SOB just chattered ! I sharpened it with a jig and it was like the one you used. With a caveat,I put it on a 56” belt sander with 100 grit. Works fantastic,but,you must be careful of the idler wheel,it takes on a gyroscope effect and can wobble. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !

Matt, great tutorial series. However, it's missing a vital component to any woodworker. Gluing! I've seen some other woodworkers on KZread try to cover this topic but it always comes across clumsily. The main issue being that people seem to follow the misconception that more is stronger. Even when people ask me for advice on glue, I tell them less is more. I see too many people in life and youtube using far too much glue for projects and wind up having a lot of waste. I think a video describing a basic understanding of what glue does to wood to create a bond, what types of glue there are on the market, their purposes, and a general tutorial on the amount of glue necessary to complete a task would go a long way for a lot of people. Thanks for the video; even if it didn't highlight the Ryoba ;-P

agreed on the glue topic. It took me a long time to figure out that it doesn't take much glue at all to get a joint stronger than the wood around it. surface prep of the joint is far more important than glue quantity, as well as clamping and not allowing the joint to separate once the glue is starting to cure.

Very helpful. Peace.

I like how you pointed out that spending money on a rip saw comes first,. If your rip saw does not do a pretty job of crosscutting, you'll likely be using a shooting board to fine-tune a crosscut, anyways.

Which tenon saw would be best for cutting pine in a mitre box? (I already have the Japanese style saws.)

What tpi would you recommend for the western style saws? I'm looking at a dovetail saw and a tenon saw but unsure what tpi to buy

One thing which I don’t think you touched on was... are resharpenable saws the way to go for folk new to working? Or standard ones out of the high street shops? I’ve been turning wood for a few of years and dabbling more with furniture making. My current saws are getting blunt and wondering if I should invest in some resharpenable ones. Any advice?? Thanks

To add to the confusion Veritas now offers the dovetail saw in either 14tpi or 20tpi. Now which should I get if I wanted 2 saws?

@MattEstlea

6 жыл бұрын

Cheers mate, I'll take that on board!

There is one particular kind of saw that's apparently not at all popular anymore with especially UK and US woodworkers - the frame saw. You can see an exquisite example of using it here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/i3qlu5lsnMjSoZs.html. (Be aware that that clip is a joke. Still, it demonstrates the use of frame saws very well, IMO.) I suppose it got out of favor with cabinet makers due to the ascent of the electric bandsaw - it pretty much allowed one to do the same kind of cuts, but manually. Why am I mentioning it: it is a highly versatile hand saw, IMO an excellent saw for a hobby woodworker or someone who frequently has to do non-trivial work outside of the workshop. Different blade patterns can be used for rip and cross cutting. The blade sits in two handles which can be rotated, so that you can cut with the blade in the same plane as the frame, or perpendicular to the frame, or at any angle in between. You can resharpen a blade many dozens of times, and reset the teeth, so you can use the same blade for many-many-many years, and if you have a set of blades of similar length, you can use them all with the same frame. The blades are typically thinner than other Western style saw blades (but not as thin as Japanese blades, just close), and you can cut both on the pull and on the push stroke. The blade, being tensioned by the frame, will never buckle, regardless of how crooked your movements are. However, given the length of the blade, it allows you to cut with long, slow, smooth, well controlled moves, which makes it easier to cut straight. Provided you invest a little time in learning to use and maintain it, and get a good set of blades which all fit into the same frame, it is a very cheap, very versatile, very precise saw, that allows very smooth and precise cuts too. In fact, with a little bit of effort, you can buy the blades only and build the frame yourself, which makes it even cheaper. Blades are increasingly difficult to find, though. Building blades out of bandsaw blades is wrong - the tooth pattern and sharpening has to be different.

Dunno man, I've got a 10 inch crown gents I rehandled for dovetail and small joint ripping, a 12 inch cheapo stanley miter saw cut down into a ~1.5 inch deep crosscut carcase saw, and a 14 inch kobalt with a semi-hybrid pattern I rehandled. Love my saws but I've been finding myself annoyed at only having a scavenged stanley 12 inch camp saw when I could really use another foot or so of blade with like half the teeth per inch from a good panel saw.

How can I tell the difference in cross and rip cut blades

Do you recommend to buy Veritas or better another for the same money?

People start push saw cuts by pulling because it’s less likely to catch and skip, not because people inherently want to pull a saw. 😀 I occasionally find myself wanting to start a cut with a ryoba by pushing. Again, not because I just love pushing a saw but because the opposite isn’t working as well as I would like.

i usually just use chissles to cut with the grain and a japanese saw across it

One drawback to Japanese-pattern saws - mostly a problem when cross-cutting - because the cut is on the pull stroke any broken fibers and dribbling saw-dust tend to obscure the line you're cutting to. If I had to have only one saw it would be a rip-cut. I started investigating this concept after reading "Tage Frid Teaches Woodworking" wherein he wrote that any cross-cut saw that comes into his shop gets re-filed to rip pattern as soon as it's dull. I've found that the surface quality between cross-cut and rip tooth is not as much as you would expect, when comparing the same TPI, but the rip saw works considerably faster. Comparing a 14tpi cross-cut to a 5tpi rip will obviously show a huge discrepancy, but 14tpi cross-cut to 14tpi rip... Not enough of a difference to change the workflow. Really - when do you leave a raw saw-cut on a show surface on furniture? Never.

Okay, after finishing reading the comments and seeing all of the mentions of Japanese saws I feel I need to add a cautionary note. These saws were developed by a culture that cut primarily soft woods. If you are planning on cutting western or tropical hardwoods with Japanese saws you may find your prized saws to be missing more teeth than the front row at a Willie Nelson concert. Also, that Ryoba has a 265mm blade (standard) which will leave you feeling like a sewing machine as you try to make the most of that 8" stroke. I defy anyone to hog through an 8/4 plank of hard maple with one of those. If all you are doing is joinery then you can get away with it, but as a replacement for western saws in general... No. I'll keep my 32" 5-point rip saw, that I can re-sharpen. For a western saw that will do everything a Ryoba will do, I would go with a 10-point rip panel saw with ground plate and minimal set.

I have actually cut both 8/4 and 12/4 hard maple and oak with my Japanese pull saw when I was making a bed last year. Just happened to be what I had that was sharp when I was working on the project, as my western says were in need of sharpening. Have to say that because of the ease of use, sharpness, combo of crosscut and rip on the same tool, and staying dead straight without a spine getting in the way; I tend to go with the ryoba about 9 times out of 10. Except in any very specific circumstances where anything different would be considerably better. Heck...even when I am cutting dowels, I tend to go for the Japanese flush cut saw more often. Neither one has ever really found a task it cannot master with the proper form and time.

Thank you for the video. How come you are holding the Japanese saw with your finger like that, though? I see zero Japanese people using that grip, so I don't think it's the intended grip.

Can a Japanese saw be sharpened?

So many reviews rate the Veritas range above most including those that cost twice as much. I've just ordered the rip tenon, crosscut carcass and the standard dovetail, should have them next week. Ouch in for a penny in for a lot of pounds over 200 of them. PS if you can only afford one saw look at Spear and Jackson or equivalently priced reasonable quality saws you can get two sizes for the same price. With a 10 minute fettle with an appropriate file you will have two usable saws while you save up for the Veritas set, there are 9 of them in total last count. You can fry an egg in a source pan and make a stew in a frying pan but would you. PPS I do like your videos but how can you afford all those very expensive tools.

Silky used to make a framing saw that was very much like that. It was called the Silky Zorin and the Shelter Institute recommended them as standard equipment for cross cutting timbers. People don't understand that the impulse hardened blades means they don't have to use tooth patterns that are easy to sharpen since you cannot sharpen impulse hardened teeth anyway. That means they get a harder tooth and it gives them open season to use exotic tooth patterns. kzread.info/dash/bejne/e4WNq9yRoZvbg5s.html

So a rip saw will have teeth that are square to the plate. Think lots of little chisels. A crosscut saw will have teeth at an angle other than 90 degrees to the plate. Those teeth will alternate angles as well. It will make more sense when you look at them. As for the carcass saw, it’s mostly the size of it that gives it that name. Larger than a dovetail saw, not as large as a tenon saw. They can come in either rip or crosscut teeth patterns. Hope this helps.
