Shogun MP150 Japanese Precision Dozuki Saw 150mm

One of the most popular of the Japanese saws, is this Dozuki style precision saw. It has a back spine which supports the blade during the pull cut allowing an incredibly thin plate to be used, only 0.3mm.

The thin plate means less material is removed and so the resulting cut requires very little effort whilst giving very high accuracy and a smooth finish.

Applications include dovetailing, tenoning, cross-cutting, box making and general cabinet making.

This small sized Dozuki saw can cut to a depth up to 30mm. The blade fixes to a traditional rattan wrapped paulownia wooden handle that offers fantastic control.
