Set of 2 - Ryoba Japanese Pull Saw 9.5 Inch and Flush Cut 6 Inch – Woodworking Tools Ryoba Table – Steel Blades and Wood Handles, Handsaw 2 Cutting Edges– Japanese Hand Saw for Carpentry, DIY

Very sharp. Works well

Very nice saws

When my $26.98 Amazon package arrived, I was practically bouncing. Inside were two Japanese pull saws—a 9.5-inch Ryoba and a 6-inch Flush Cut, both with steel blades and wood handles, promising precision for my woodworking escapades. As a DIY enthusiast with more enthusiasm than skill, I envisioned crafting flawless furniture in my garage. What I got instead was a comedy of errors that still makes me chuckle. The Ryoba, with its dual-edged blade for rip and cross cuts, looked like a samurai sword for wood. I decided to christen it on a wobbly coffee table project. Picture me, safety goggles fogged with excitement, saw in hand, ready to slice through pine like a hot knife through butter. But Japanese pull saws cut on the pull stroke, not push, and my first tug sent the saw skittering across the board, leaving a jagged scar. I laughed it off, adjusted my grip, and tried again. This time, the blade sang, cutting clean and straight. I felt like a woodworking ninja—until I realized I’d cut the wrong board. My “table leg” was now a fancy toothpick. Undeterred, I grabbed the 6-inch Flush Cut saw to trim dowels on a shelf. Its flexible blade was perfect for flush cuts, but I got cocky. I angled the saw wrong, and instead of a smooth trim, I gouged a crater into the shelf’s surface. My wife poked her head into the garage, saw the mess, and said, “New art project?” I snorted, blaming the saw’s sharp teeth for being too eager. To redeem myself, I used the Flush Cut to fix a sticking drawer, shaving off just enough wood to make it glide. Victory at last! The real hilarity came when I decided to show off at a neighbor’s barbecue. I brought the Ryoba, boasting about my “professional” tools. Mid-demonstration on a scrap 2x4, I forgot the pull-stroke rule again and pushed the saw, sending it flying into a pile of sawdust. The crowd roared with laughter as I dusted myself off, muttering about “authentic Japanese techniques.” My neighbor, a retired carpenter, took pity and showed me how to let the saw’s weight do the work. Under his guidance, I cut a perfect dovetail joint, earning applause and a beer. For $26.98, these saws were a steal, despite my bumbling. The Ryoba’s versatility and the Flush Cut’s precision transformed my projects, once I stopped wrestling them like a push saw. Sure, the wood handles are a bit slippery when sweaty, and the blades need occasional sharpening, but they’ve turned my garage mishaps into stories worth laughing about. Now, every clean cut feels like a punchline to my DIY disasters, proving even a klutz like me can saw like a pro—eventually.

Assembling the blade to hilt took a few tries because you have to get the notch just right. I wish it had a stopper but ig it works now so no complaints once you get it figured out. The knob is a bit flimsy and bulky which doesn't make sense but so far it hasn't broken but I haven't turned the hell out of it either.

Value for the money

These saws are both wicked sharp. It’s amazing how you can use them for fast rough cuts or make the finest cuts in wood. But be careful because they are laser cut, the teeth are so fine that a careless person will see their injury before they feel it. No joke. Super thin, easy to use, easy in your hands, and if you are careless, not too experience replace.

These are great for the money. They are very sharp a great size and weight. Overall great saws. Update I want so bad to give them a 5 but the flush cut saw has done lost two teeth.

I build furniture as a hobby and this saw is a must have for anyone interested in woodworking,it can cut tenons and dove tails with precision and ease,I really like this product,you get 2 saws at a very reasonable price,it's got a good size handle and it stays sharp.👍🏽👍🏽
