About this dozuki pull saw

This full-sized Dozuki pull saw is a professional-grade joinery tool built for precision woodworking. Designed specifically for fine crosscutting, it excels at producing crisp, flat shoulders and clean intersections where accuracy cannot be compromised. The thin blade and rigid brass back work together to maintain straight, controlled cuts, even in dense hardwoods.

Unlike Western push saws, the Dozuki operates on the pull stroke. This allows the blade to remain thin without sacrificing stability, resulting in a narrower kerf and smoother finish straight from the saw. For woodworkers focused on joinery quality rather than speed, this tool offers clarity, control, and confidence in every cut.

Performance & use cases

The saw’s 25 TPI crosscut tooth geometry is engineered to sever wood fibers cleanly across the grain. This produces flat, accurate shoulders that require minimal cleanup, saving time during fitting and assembly. With a blade thickness of approximately 0.011" and a kerf of around 0.02", the saw removes very little material, preserving layout accuracy.

Supported by a solid brass spine, the blade resists flex during fine work. This rigidity is especially valuable when cutting tenon shoulders, dovetail shoulders, and Kumiko components where even slight deviation can affect fit. The saw starts easily, tracks predictably, and maintains control throughout the cut.

Well suited for workshop environments across the UAE, this Dozuki performs consistently in both softwoods and dense hardwoods such as walnut, ash, maple, and beech. It is equally appropriate for students developing foundational joinery skills and experienced makers producing high-end furniture or architectural details.

How to use (quick guide)

• Mark your cut line clearly using a knife or marking gauge
• Position the saw lightly on the line and begin with short pull strokes
• Let the saw do the work; avoid forcing pressure on the blade
• Maintain a relaxed grip to improve accuracy and reduce fatigue
• Complete the cut with steady, controlled strokes for a clean shoulder
