Beautiful work as always, Pedder! Is the top handle pear wood?
Best,

Pedder, are you breaking into the Asian pull saw market? That is a sweet looking tool!

Nice work as always, Pedder. Did you use western filing on the pull saw? I played around a bit with them using western filing and finer pitches. 18 to 20 ppi. Never really came to a decision on them.

Hei Ron!

This is a western style crosscut on the pull stroke. 16 tpi as I can not see the teeth on finer saws that good to file them crosscut.

Both saws are very, very nice. I am sure they cut fantastic as well.

Awesome.  Gents saws are my favorite to use for fine cuts.
