Why is not every Japanese saw suitable for beginners and trainees?
Most Japanese standard saws are made from band steel. After the computer-controlled grinding of the teeth, their tips are hardened with lasers. The blade itself remains relatively soft and elastic. With improper use, such as getting stuck in wood, the blade can bend or tear. It rarely breaks. A replacement blade usually costs about 2/3 of a new saw. Since the saw itself is relatively inexpensive, the cost of a replacement blade is quite bearable. We recommend these standard saws for beginners and trainees. By "beginners," we mean anyone for whom the use of Japanese saws is something new, including experienced woodworkers who have not yet worked with them.
The expensive professional saws are all fully hardened. They are made in Japan for professional Japanese woodworkers who know how to handle them and have the use of pulling ingrained in them. These saws are not "beginner-tolerant." The blade breaks with improper handling, which is often not recognized by beginners due to their still developing sensitivity to these saws. A blade break is not a reason for complaint.
Therefore, our urgent request: Only buy such a saw if you already have experience with Japanese saws! We want you to be satisfied as a customer and feel obligated to sell you only what fits your needs and skills.
We also want to protect you from what happened to the company founder himself: His first fully hardened handmade saw, which cost 300 DM back then in the early nineties, broke into 3 pieces after some time when he was not focused. Because he was so attached to this saw, he continued to work with the remaining two-thirds of the blade for many years.
The fully hardened saws offer a new sawing experience in terms of speed, accuracy, and cleanliness of the cut. You should not miss out on them if you have gained some experience with standard saws.
