Set of 3 Japanese Zet-Saws, Dozuki and Kataba (Rip and Crosscut)

This set of 3 Japanese saws has some of our most popular saws and will allow you to perform a wide range of everyday woodworking applications. 

The set has  our best-selling saw, a 240 mm Hardwood Dozuki with a spline. The Dozuki has 25 TPI and will make fine and precise cuts for dovetails, tenons and other joinery in hard and soft woods and can rip, crosscut and cut angles equally well. Specs for this saw are below.

The set also contains 2 Kataba saws, one for ripping and the other for crosscutting. These Kataba saws are the perfect saws for general cutting. They have a single cutting edge without a back or spline. Their blades are considerably thicker than those found on the Dozuki back saws. With a thicker blade and no back, these saws are capable of making deep and long cuts in hard and soft woods. These saws have teeth filed for either ripping or crosscutting and will produce clean , fast and deep cuts across and with the grain.  Specs for these saws are below.

Both the Dozuki and Kataba saws have replaceable friction-fit blades with impulse-hardened teeth for exceptional edge retention.

All saws are made in Japan.
