05T0605 - Veritas Small Fine-Tooth Crosscut Saw, 22 tpi
Description
Incorporates all of the critical characteristics of a classic fine joinery saw, yet is executed using modern production processes and state-of-the-art materials.
The 0.020" thick high-carbon steel blade features 14 rip-cut teeth per inch, having 0.003" of set per side.
The teeth have a rake angle of 14° and an included angle of 60°.
The revolutionary spine is injection molded under high pressure using an advanced material, incorporating stainless-steel powder for weight, glass fiber for stiffness and a polymer resin binder.
The blade and stainless-steel handle-mounting bolt are completely over-molded, creating a solid one-piece blade/spine/mount assembly.
A single brass fastener secures the bubinga handle, the shape of which has been derived from antique saws in the Lee Valley collection.
The saw has excellent balance, cuts easily and true and has a comfortable pistol grip that makes the saw feel as if it's an extension of your arm.
