GYOKUCHOSangyo Spare Blade for 9-1/2" Razor Saw for Hardwoods

I have purchased an additional spare blade S651 even though my original still has plenty of life after 2 years of use.Not only does it cut clean and straight, after a fair bit of practice, but you are getting 2 saws in one.The rip side is aggressive and tears through the Ash that I tend to use more often than other woods and the fine cross cut leaves a finish the needs little to no sanding or planing smooth.5/5 a real gem of a saw.

Excellent product, exactly according to the given specifications.

Great bleade that holds it's edge for a long time

This brand (Gyokucho) is the singular value in Japanese razorsaws. This combination of teeth is the best in this style of saw for a mix of hardwood and softwood. it's very sharp. it's perfectly made. It's a pull saw so it cuts straight and easily, unlike the nasty mitre saw you inherited from your aunt. The blade is thinner and the teeth last longer than a shark saw. If you are in construction you will appreciate this saw slightly more overall and regret slightly more (as well) when you saw a nail. But not as much as most of this species of tool.if you have not owned a Japanese razorsaw, you are missing one of the basic joys of human existence.Since this brand is hardened at the factory you will prefer to buy a new blade rather than learn the ancient yet tedious art of saw sharpening . That's what this product is - a replacement blade. Get the one with a handle for slightly more if you're just starting out. The blade will last you two years if you are a determined weekend warrior and much less than that if you use it on the job.

This is an excellent replacement plate. Very sharp and holds its age. I work mostly in beech and cherry. This cuts through hardwoods with minimal effort.
