An Excellent All-purpose Saw Jul 27, 2010
This was a valuable discovery! Just the "pull stroke" alone is better than the old "push pull." I wanted a saw to use mainly with my artwork and was going for the fine cut model 10-2440 but, after reading all the reviews, decided on this more "all-purpose" carpenter's saw. Great decision. This saw has cut everything I've tried with little effort, including a 4" x 4" redwood post...and very small, -1" pieces. Though the saw appears fragile, it's not. I like the fact that even as flexible as the blade is, it cuts a straight line through thick material as though guided by an extra hand. Be forewarned, the fine teeth can grab you if you aren't careful. As Bealing says, this will be my only saw--although I'm sure I'll get other Shark blades just for the fun of it!
love it Apr 06, 2010
the saw is as good as I knew it would be. It works great and the price was good.
first handsaw I've ever enjoyed using Apr 04, 2010
My only memories of hand saws were from using my dad's old 70's era push-cut beast as a kid. It was slow, difficult to control, and laborious. This has completely changed my opinion of hand cutting. It works incredibly fast on cross cuts (don't force it, just let the weight of the blade do the work) and reasonably well on rips (though seemingly a bit slower for some reason).
The handle is well designed in that the angle allows you to grip it horizontally (as you would in most circumstances) but also vertically for sawing into a board (teeth away from you) which I used to put notches in a board to make a joint. I've been reaching for it more often than power saws lately because it is quick, fast, less messy and not noisy.
The Best Saw, Period Jan 20, 2010
I have had my saw for over five years and I have cut everything from bones to trees to PVC. Even with half the teeth missing it is still usable. I tried to replace it with another saw but nothing comes close. So I just ordered a replacement blade. This also makes a great backpacking saw; it's lightweight and compact with the handle removed.
simply amazing Dec 02, 2009
I saw the videos in the Shark site and this saw makes everything this videos show. It's incredible how fast, accurate and clean are the cuts, I just throwed away my other two hand saws, strongly recomend it.
