A whole lot of precision packed into a 10" saw✨

Our Luthier Saw is the finest-toothed saw in our lineup, featuring a 16ppi toothline and an ultra-thin .015" plate for exceptionally clean cuts. Pair it with the depth stop for cutting uniform fret slots, or remove the stop to take advantage of the saw’s full cutting depth.

What an amazing testimonial from one of the best fine woodworkers I have the honor of knowing, Frank Strazza!

Major shout-out to for filming and sharing these videos. It always feels good to have people in your corner who remind you how loved and supported you are.

If you're going to Handworks this year, you can find BOTH Frank and my team in the Furniture Shop along with a bunch of other fantastic vendors. Sept. 4-5, see you there! 🪚

The Joiners Saw is without a doubt one of my favorite saws to use for quick off-cuts. We just dropped a few good looking 17" Joiner’s Saws onto our Ready-Made page 🪚 👀

We met .alex at a tradeshow a while back and he was carrying around a rolling dovetail he had made. Of course we geeked out over how cool this joint is! Fast forward to today, he sent us our own rolling dovetail to play around with in the shop 😎 had to show this off because it's so much fun. Thanks Alex!!

Test cutting a Panel Saw that is 2x too big for my extra small hands 😂

This is our 26" Rip-Cut Panel Saw, taper-ground to reduce friction and help the saw track cleanly without binding in the kerf. The plate is made from blue-tempered spring steel, hardened to a Rockwell range of 49–52 for an ideal balance of strength, flexibility, and edge retention.

Each saw plate is hammer-smith straightened, the teeth are hammer-set, and the saw is carefully sharpened and tuned to be ready for serious work 🪚

We decided to switch it up on this run of finished frame saws. This time we tried Maple with Walnut pinstriping, reversing our usual look. We have a couple Frame Saws in both regular (30.5") and long (36.5") available now!
