it's got bad here and today's exciting episode we're gonna talk about Japanese hand sores rather
than myself trying to explain Japanese hand sores hey buddy good good very good hey it goes nice to
see you again yeah you too so I like most European builders started with a sore like this European
hand saw this which works on the push wrap and this is what I was used to and I didn't even see
Japanese hands until much later it was probably like four years ago I started using it I watched
summer I cap into this videos and then got into them that way since then that's all I've been
using I think you know what putting them laying them on the table like these and then explain
what you can do with each of them and then you can probably make a better decision next time if you
want to purchase one of them typical questions are I never use a Japanese hand saw where do I start
these are your general carpentry source if you never had any Japanese hensel's this is what I
would start with Ryoma means double H so one inch is for crosscut and the other one is for
ripping yeah that's a ripping and then only on the cross god you see that each T tooth sorry
has like different cutting angles so that means crosscut for carrying across the grain and ripping
for cutting along the grain so that will be my starting point never had a Japanese saw which
one should I start with I such as the Rio of us straight away so framing middle now we move on to
the Suki's or Tynan sauce that's my favorite one for crosscut and then this one is for raping we
got this one here that is a combination of both it's cross cut and ripping so that is actually
quite handy as well if you have the the direction of the grain on an angle so you can actually
do what we call the slant cut yeah so crosscut ripping slant cuts and then we have the Katara's
so the khatallah means pretty much knows flying okay so if I want to make a deep cat with the
with the so like this without tsuki with with a hardback you get to a point that actually there
the hardback is limiting the depth of a cat do you wanna make you need to use a guitar bass
or both builders love them they use them a lot one thing that I do wanna for exercise on any
particular blades when they get blunt don't throw the blades away you can file the teeth off yeah
and then you can make really cool cabinet scrapers then we got the 180 series we replicate the same
kind of models that we saw before but in just now in a shorter length Datsyuk across can do
tsuki ripping crosscut and ripping combined but here you see something different here in this so
you have ripping teeth so if I want to rip in a middle of the panel so sometimes customers want
end-user once you have teeth on the very tip of the of the blade so there's actually a really
good feature with the spline people ask what what is a spline for this plan gives you more
accurate much more stability on the blade because and the Sufi normally has a really comes with a
really fine really thin blade yeah but for that thickness I need to cut the protection of that
of the spline yeah you won't be able to use it otherwise the katara normally has as we said
before no spline but the place thicker and that covers pretty much the fine woodworking sauce
we got this one here is one of our very popular source this one does crosscut and
ripping you got this is a fantastic so this one here there's a cross cuts but
got ripping teeth so you can start a cut and then we got our guitar with a
thicker blade obviously same folding the blades are replaced all the little ones
these are flash cutting sauce so these saws have no set on the t arrow so I can use them
for cutting dowels and plugs or anything that is protruding without scratching the surface
use these this one or this one here the main difference here is this is double h we call
it again right over but in this particular case cross cut from both edges one finer and
the other one is coarser and this one here it's just a single edge but it's quite pointy like
instrument makers I love them because they can get into real tight spaces with this as well
correct so I show this all the time and and got someone think that this is a just cutting blade
but not that says Japanese so you can extend that the reason of that of the wheel is because you
can lock it properly because you're gonna cap and you can replace the blades quite easily that's 18
mils so you can put 18 me cutting blades on the same knife at the moment we bring this blade for
woodwork they have one that is for pruning and there's another one for cutting metal as well
this is a pruning saw but we sell this a lot to mainly builders for cutting four by twos or
burling's can cut down on it and then just for the normal cuts they're quite light they don't
ache so if you're in the up in the roof and off the Sun you need the skill so for me just one
cut and you don't want to go all the way down this heaps of videos of how to use Japanese
hand saws when I want to get started I just score a little bit just get into the cut and
then you just go for it that's it can you see a reflection of that and if I go it's going like
down yeah so you try so that's why you need to look at just to keep it straight yeah so that's
a really good trick it's you can you can look what's going on have a look at the timber one
common mistake that people make most of the time is they rush they think that is a race
yeah and that's when they are gonna break the hands or they're gonna cut themselves
if you forget these guys I wanted that piece of wood it's all our practice so I hope that helped
you guys with them bit of a guide to Japanese Hansel's I know when I first saw them I took a
bit of getting used to like anything practice using oh yeah yes sorry for uh there's a New
Zealand watching this video there's a one day only deal discount code is gonna be gear poocho so just
pay attention to that in capital letters so they check out you can put this name and that is gonna
give you 20% off in the whole range 20% just for one day when this video it's like I'm sorry if
you're in the international audience where's a good place for people to be like in in the US or
UK where's a good place I mean UK there's quite a lot of shops probably in Europe I would say dictum
dictum is that yeah amazing is like a church they go there his tools and all that yeah when I was
really finding that message on Instagram or yeah Instagram I can replace through the way and I can
say I feel in Canada just go and check this or you're in the US or Europe yeah house what was
that so obviously I got cast on cos he knows more about the stuff than I do and guess Don's
a person I buy all this all these hand tools from so I hope that was informative helpful useful and
I'll catch you guys in the next exciting episode I make thank you very much you know I see you yes
they would just fall across cat Chester draw sketches that again
airplanes beware okay I you I you for the keyboard by a behind-the-scenes
and all that stuff yeah yeah so this could be a look of people like that
