Interview :
- Clean the blade after use: remove sawdust, dust and wood residue.
- Wipe and dry before storing to limit oxidation.
- Lightly oil the blade after long periods of storage to preserve the steel.
- Check the teeth: large carpenter's teeth can be resharpened with appropriate Japanese files to prolong cutting efficiency.

The 330mm Gesuke carpenter's saw is a traditional Japanese backless saw designed for heavy-duty woodworking. This saw belongs to the family of tools historically used by Japanese carpenters to quickly and efficiently cut large sections of wood, such as planks, beams, or massive pieces.

The 330 mm blade length, combined with large teeth (3 teeth per cm), allows for high sawing efficiency on both green and dry wood, reducing the effort required while speeding up the cutting process. This design is particularly well-suited to the needs of traditional timber framing, large joints, or primary cuts in heavy joinery.

The saw is distinguished by its simple and robust construction, true to the spirit of large Japanese tools: performance, reliability and fast cutting, without compromising on the ability to handle large sections of wood.
