StewMac Japanese Fret Saw and Depth Stop

lt;p><b>Our most efficient saw for fret slots!</b> Handmade, each saw cuts on the pull-stroke. This traditional design reduces blade flex and jamming as you saw the slot.</p><p><b>Rigid nickel-plated brass spine, comfortable traditional bamboo handle.</b></p><p>The craftsmanship and efficiency of traditional handmade Japanese woodworking saws are legendary. We are pleased to offer a unique example made specifically for cutting fret slots, complete with easy depth-of-cut adjustment. This is our smoothest, most efficient handsaw for fret work—it cuts FAST!</p><p>The thumbscrew-adjustable clear acrylic Depth Stop slides up and down for precise control of fret slot depth. It's removable for cutting off the ends of a blank fingerboard, or for use with our Fret Slotting Miter Box.</p><p><b>TIP:</b> The blade features extremely sharp teeth, with precise .023" kerf to match our fretwire. Because it cuts faster than a standard fret saw, it must be held perpendicular to the fretboard. If not, you can quickly cut a wider slot than you expect. We recommend our Fret Slotting Miter Box for keeping the saw in proper alignment.</p><p>Overall length: 19-3/4"(501.65mm)</p><p>Cutting length: 9-3/4"(247.65mm)</p><p>Blade depth: 1-3/4" (44.45mm)</p><p>Cut accurate 90-degree slots when you use the saw with our Fret Slotting Miter Box. Add a Fret Scale Template and you'll never miscalculate your fret positions.</p>
