18" Half Backs
I offer several styles of Half Back Saws. All with a 23* hangangle.
1) Single Loop: These saws have a simple rounded toe with a single rounded cheek on the tote.
2) Double Loop: Just like it says. A double rounded loop on the toe of the saw with a tote that matches the double loop.
3) Triple Loop: Sort of my trade mark saw. This saw has a triple loop toe and piercing with a matching triple loop cheek on the tote.
Unless requested otherwise, all half backs are filed cross cut. These saws function best as deep cross cut saws. Generally 9 or 10 ppi, 15* rake and 20 to 25* fleam. I file all my saws by hand. So if you want something different, just let me know.
The standard half back saw starts at $375.00 and vary based on options, wood species, etc..
For those that desire a step above the rest: A Triple Loop in Acrylic Resin Infused maple burl. These are one off saws. Occassonally I get lucky and can make a matching dovetail out of the same block of resin infused burl. These saws start at $475.00
