Dozuki Saw
This is a 9-1/2 inch dozuki (Dovetail) saw, a type of backsaw. The Japanese word “dozuki” means “attached trunk”, so it has a stiffening rib attached. A dozuki allows the user to create a narrow, precise cut due to its thin blade and its easiness to control.
A remarkable point of this SUIZAN dozuki saw is its precision. Amazingly, the Kerf Width is 0.016 inch! You can do every woodworking with it.
Cross-Cut
To cut across the grain is called cross cut. Cross cut teeth consist of two teeth in which one points slightly to the right and the other to the left. Cross cut teeth cut wood fiber at a certain width. It works the same when cutting the grain diagonally.
What is “SUIZAN”?

With more than 100 years of history, all of the processes are completed in a Japanese city in Niigata prefecture called Sanjō, which is known for its craftsmanship.
That’s why our products are highly appreciated by many woodworkers.
