The most versatile Japanese saw is the Ryoba. it has two sets of teeth – one for rip cuts and one for crosscuts. The cold rolled steel blade of this Z-Saw S-250 has sharp impulse hardened teeth on both sides for a long cutting life. It’s only .5 mm thick so cutting is smooth and easy. The Ryoba is a general purpose saw that’s good for many jobs – from dimensioning, sizing to cutting joints. It doesn’t have a back so you can cut stock of almost any thickness. It includes a protective cover for the blade.
