Birdeye Maple Handled Dovetail Saw

$495.00

Our original Dovetail Saw Handled in Birdseye Maple. Birdseye Maple is a hard maple with small included knots which resemble eyes. Only about 1% of all maple is Birdseye, and finding lumber with enough eyes to notice is not easy to find. This saw has a 9" long blade with 1 5/8" under the back. The blade is .018" thick with a uniform, even set measuring .025" sufficient for easy cutting in dry seasoned hardwoods. The teeth have a progressive pitch which start at 16 points and become coarser over the length of the blade ending up at 13 points under the handle. This allows for a saw that is easy to start and fast in the cut.
