- 14 inch Sash Saw -

Effective immediately (21 November 2015), I have stopped taking new orders for custom backsaws. For a full explanation, please read this blog entry.

This is another saw that is incredibly versatile. While it is a little oversized to cut most of the dovetails found in casework, it will handle the larger tenons and crosscut work that strain the limits of a 12 inch carcase saw.

• Fourteen inch blade length.
• 3 3/8 inch depth of cut.
• Standard tooth configuration of 11 or 12 ppi (for rip teeth), 12 or 13 ppi (for cross cut teeth), or 12 ppi (for hybrid teeth). Not sure what ppi means? Don't worry - it's all explained here - and if you still have questions, please let me know.
• Filed with rake and fleam to fit your usage. Not sure what rake and fleam are? Don't worry - it's all explained here - and if you still have questions, please let me know.
• Available in 0.020" and 0.025" plate thicknesses.

From the handle wood and pattern to the spine and hardware materials and design, this saw can be customized to meet your aesthetic sensibilities. Before ordering, please take a look at the range and descriptions of the available options.

Features include:

• Premium 1095 spring steel, hardened and tempered to Rc 48-51.
• Hand sharpened, hand set teeth.
• Spines with milled slots, sprung for tight friction fit.
• Improved split saw nuts for increased strength and longevity.
• Premium hardwood handles that are precisely shaped for comfort and aesthetics.
• Handles are available in a range of sizes to fit most any hand.
• Handedness: Left-hand models have the bolt heads and stamp on what is traditionally the "back" side of the saw. There is no difference in the shape of the handle or filing.

Patterned after a ca. 1840's Disston saw.

Ready to order? Configure your saw using the dropdown menus below, or contact me to explore options beyond those found below. Because your saw will be made to your specifications, each saw requires a $40 non-refundable deposit at the time of ordering. The balance is due when your saw is completed and ready to ship.

After you place your deposit, I will send you a few questions that will help me customize your saw to fit your needs. If your needs or desires change before I begin building your saw, there is no extra charge - just let me know so I can update your design.

Made in the USA. Fully warranted for one year.
