When do Woodworkers question Whether Japanese Hand Saws are Suitable for Hardwoods?
#woodworkingtools #woodworkers #handsaws
The biggest concerns about using Japanese saws with hardwoods are the possibility of tearing teeth from the blade, bending the teeth, or otherwise damaging the saw and the fear is quite real. Because the saw plate is much thinner, it is easy to understand that it will probably not be as strong as a Western-type saw simply because there is less material.
There is no question that Japanese saws are more fragile and more susceptible to damage than the equivalent Western saws. But the properties that make them so fragile such as the taller tooth shape, the thinner, much harder, and brittle steel, and more acute angles at the cutting tips of each tooth also reduce the load applied to each tooth. The final result is a saw that appears to be at first glance a very fragile design into something that makes sense.
Provided you are careful with a Japanese saw, it should be more than capable of dealing with hardwoods. As long as you make sure your work is adequately secured, you choose a saw appropriate to the task and you allow the saw to work at its own speed and do not force it, a Japanese saw will serve you well, and it should remain sharp for a lot longer into the bargain.
The above applies to traditional design Japanese saws, and if you are fortunate enough to be able to purchase one, then it would be a wise choice to choose a hardwood-specific saw. Hardwood saws have teeth where the edges are shaped with less acute cutting tips, sacrificing some of the sharpness to gain durability.
Replaceable blade Japanese saws let you get the advantages of Japanese saws along with a softer, more robust plate, harder and longer-lasting working edges, and a much cheaper price. If you accidentally hurt one, it’s less of a burden to simply replace the blade rather than replace or repair the entire saw. The difference is that replaceable blade saws do not cut as cleanly as a hand made saw will.

One important detail missed in the video was that the reason Japanese saws can be thinner and lighter is that they cut on the pull stroke rather than the push stroke, which means that while the saw is cutting the blade is in tension on a Japanese saw rather than in compression in a European saw. This is the reason European saws need to be thicker and stiffer is to resist buckling while the saw is being pushed. since it is cutting at this time, while a Japanese saw only needs to be stiff enough to not buckle as it is slid forward before the next pulling (and cutting) stroke. One thing that I'd love to see improved in these videos is translating more of the Japanese subtitles on the video. Without these translated it's not clear what the purpose of a lot of the manufacturing stages is. I suspect finding a European saw with a manufacturing process as labour intensive as the one shown for the Japanese saw would be more or less impossible. I'm pretty sure affordable Japanese saws are not made like this either though.

There is no reason why a mass produced saw couldn't be just as good as a handmade one... The main issue is that due to the demand for cheap saws, the mass produced ones often lack good quality control. However saws such as those from the Silky brand, with precision ground teeth and hollow ground blade with no set are incredibly smooth and leave an exceptional finish, the crosscut surfaces they leave are better than if you sanded them.

A Japanese carpenter KZfaqr was saying in his program that saw used to be the most expensive tools to maintain that he used fortune on as it requires frequent adjustments. But nowadays he uses mass produced throwaways because there are not enough technician left to do the proper maintenance and they are so expensive because of it. I am sure all the experience shared here are with mass produced ones but still it’s a pleasure. Japanese saw cutting experience is completely different from western tools especially nowadays with all these power tools we can enjoy Japanese saw with proper jobs with maximum pleasure. Very nice.

I agree about the maintenance on the hand made saws. I have one hand made pull saw that requires sharpening and tooth set after about 10 hours of use. It is a joy to use and cuts better than the mass produced pull saw I have, but the sharpening and set takes me about 3 hours. Mass produced ones are definitely cheaper to use if you value your time and cut quality in my opinion is only about 10% less in a mass produced one than a hand made one.

Japanese saws have a huge advantage over european saws when it comes to longevity: They operate on the pull. This means the saw is under tension during the actual cut and thus kept straight. Saws cutting on the push experience compression und bow out, making the saw bend with every cut, especially when the saw gets stuck or you misalign it in the cut. A japanese saw can still get bent by inexperienced woodworkers when they misalign the cut (pull it out of the workpiece in an angle), but they only get bent at that angle of misalignment. European saws that get misaligned and thus stuck will get bent violently due to the compressive force.

Notice that the men doing this painstaking work are all working at their own pace, with skill born of long practice. The Japanese culture places value on doing any job to the best of your ability and, while I don't think every single saw of this type is made in this way, they are still worlds different to the mass produced handsaws of the western world. These tools cost more for a very good reason.

Very few tools are made anywhere in the world by hand using individual makers, regardless of what culture you are looking at the main production of tooling is fully automated and very cost effective. A $1,200 hand plane really is amazing to use, but it is not ten times better than a $120 version - same with any cutting tool. A $35 saw cuts almost as well as a $350 one, but it is not cost effective for most people to pay ten times the price for tooling that cannot return much more in practical output in the shop - longevity may be longer with the high quality tooling, but not ten times... I love high end tools just like I love high end reels and cars, sadly without the finances to afford many of these I must be happy with just the occasional treat for personal satisfaction...

Good Lord....the only thing I use Japanese saws on are hardwoods, and I mean HARD WOODS at times. Like Bubinga, Shedua, Gaboon Ebony, Katalox, etc. Only put downward pressure on the pull, and easy slide forward, that's the full user's manual. How is the premise of this video even a question? If you think Japanese pull-saws are too fragile you're a caveman with tennis elbow from your "superior" English-tooth saws. Btw, there are also Japanese files with tooth geometries that cut only on the push, and polish on the pull. Along with the brilliant Shinto file, none of which could I live without.

Your bio-mechanical errors in technique will suddenly disappear. Source: we've done exactly this in my shop for 90°, 45°,14°, 7°, etc. You can make the 'foot' one-sided and clamp it on, or get fancy with threaded inserts and star-knobs so that the jig doesn't care about stock thickness.

As with anything Japanese the weebs will always defend their beloved piece of metal while slagging off those *uncultured western* tools 😂 They each have their own strengths and weaknesses. Know how to use them and you'll find that they are perfect in their own way

I gave a thumbs down because the narration was computer generated. For that short amount of talking they should have hired someone to talk.

strange how they use western sheet steel,guillotine,power hammer,hand sheers,grinders,tooth forming machines,electric oven. basically everything western to make a japanese pull saw

@missionron 4 жыл бұрын

They do not use western sheet steel. They use Hitachi steel. And their industry tools are mainly Japanese. ...might look western, but most likely arent.

jadekayak01 the Japanese have been forging steel for a long long time.....

I'll echo maezzee's reply.....buy a high-end forged "Damascus" Japanese chisel (can't remember their name for it) and see how often you DON'T have to sharpen it. Those folks have their cutting tool metallurgy down cold.

@@robwoodring9437 and you have been suckered into the "damascus" bullshit industry. If you really studied damascus(or more correctly,pattern welded or layered steels) you would know it is only a SOLUTION for a technically inferrior steel making process(couldnt get the charge hot enough to fully melt and make a homogeneous steel) Layered steels only excell in cutting FLESH due to the micro serations in the finished piece. For TOOLS you cant beat a perfectly manufactured homogeneous steel. For metal working there are NO damascus tools(with the exception of the japanese tool for rough shaving of forged billets) I suggest YOU make quite a few pieces of damascus steel and then get back to me. I am not a highly accomplished smith but have a few pieces under the belt.

@@missionron and where did they get the knowledge to make tgese "japanese" machines MACHINES were introduced to Japan and the refined them. SHEETS of steel are not a JAPANESE historical product. They DO make some of the best steels in the world today but it is all in an industrial manner. JAPANESE couldnt even produce a properly melted ingot of steel pre europen contact. ALL thier steel produced was made in a tatar furnace which only produced a rough lump of steel that hadnt been properly smelted. The UK and Europe surpassed this method hundreds of years ago.
