A Japanese saw is a type of hand saw that originates from Japan and is known for its unique design and cutting method. Unlike Western saws, which cut on the push stroke, a Japanese saw cuts on the pull stroke, which allows for greater precision and control. The blade is typically thinner and has finer teeth, making it ideal for making accurate, smooth cuts in wood. Japanese saws are commonly used in woodworking for tasks such as fine joinery, trimming, and detailed cutting. They come in different types, including ryoba, a double-edged saw, and kataba, a single-edged saw.
