Review: Great budget saw, with a little work it’s a 10. - For the price this is the best tenon saw out there. The handles fastened with screws not rivets now. Out of the box is is just ok but if you spend an hour on it you can have it as good as a Disston. I sharpened the saw and reshaped the handle to fit my hand after that it’s just dreamy. Paul Sellers and Rex Krueger both have articles and videos on how to tune up saws well worth it. Review: Good Value - Needs "Tuning" - Since I bought this S & J 10", 13 tpi, 5010Y tenon saw in August, 2021, it's seen a lot of use and held up admirably. So I thought I'd update a couple of things. The plate is 0.026" thick and, at the moment, the kerf is 0.036" and the "Cross Ground" found in the description is not "Cross Cut", but cut straight across "Rip Cut". By the bye, since this comments section seems to include all things S & J saw related, if you have one ot their's with rivets instead of saw bolts, desertcart now sells saw bolts of two kinds from Taylor Tools. This saw, while not "Highly Refined" [hence the good price] it's serviceable w/a little "Fettling". The Paul Sellers' trick of using a mill file to take the excess set on the sides of the teeth down evenly on both sides a bit [jointing] works. So, of course, would removing it by using an anvil and a smooth face hammer. (Getting the reduced set reset evenly will take a lot of attention to detail. I'd suggest sandwiching the teeth between the anvil and a piece of flat β…›" or thicker steel and hammering "Gently" on the steel. That way it won't take near as much "Fussing".) Otherwise, it will do the job of sawing close to your pencil line/Knife Wall leaving you to clean it up w/a chisel and/or a shoulder plane, etc. Addendum: I just helped another woodworker with a question about suitability of the the S&J 12" Tenon Saw in a miter box and I noticed something disturbing in the reviews; Benjamin Franklin's discovery [electricity] has led us to a society that has not only lost the hard won, time tested institutional knowledge of how hand tools are supposed to work properly, but get unembarrassedly upset when the tools don't conform to their preconceived misconceptions. What do I mean? All one handed saws, from 8" 26 tpi dovetail to 28" 4 tpi ripsaws are supposed to be gripped by the last three fingers of your hand and the first (pointer) finger laid along side the saw handle pointing towards the toe (tip) of the blade to help guide the cut straight. A bench (hand) plane, smoother, jack, fore and jointer plane's Tote (rear handle) is the same; three fingers around the body and the fore finger up under the plane iron helping to both guide the plane forward and be instantly ready to adjust the cutting depth as necessary. If you buy a handsaw whose saw plate's too short for your saw stroke, either shorten your saw stroke or buy a longer saw AFTER you read the dimensions and quit having a hissy fit. By the bye, if you go to Blackburn Tools [blackburntools.com] you'll find a lot of parts (like saw bolts, etc), measurements for hand sizes and much more - but only if you're willing to put in the effort to do so. Otherwise your reactions to the lack of knowledge you don't have speaks more to your institutionability, than it does your institutional knowledgeability. ## Features - Universal teeth for general use, cuts along and across the grain - Precision cross ground teeth - Solid brass back for maximum rigidity - Used for joint cutting & sawing small pieces of wood - Comfortable wooden handle secured with solid brass screws ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0043YL80A | | Best Sellers Rank | #48,029 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #74 in Handsaws | | Blade Length | 10 inches | | Blade Material | High Speed Steel | | Blade Shape | Rectangular | | Brand | Spear & Jackson | | Brand Name | Spear & Jackson | | Color | Tenon 10 Inch X 13 Ppi | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 492 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05011198001415 | | Handle Material | Wood | | Included Components | 1 x Spear & Jackson 5410Y Tenon Saw | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 152"L x 55"W x 11.8"H | | Item Type Name | Traditional Brass Back | | Item Weight | 0.57 kg | | Manufacturer | Spear & Jackson | | Manufacturer Part Number | 5410Y | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Quality guarantee.

I have a few ideas but I'm looking for the best and quickest way.** A: the coating on the saw is most likely lacquer to protect against rust and I would not take it off personally. I would just wax the blade with any type of floor wax or other was and let the coating wear off with use. Most handsaws will rust on the blade in you don't wax or wd40 it regularly. **Q: Is this a rip saw, or crosscut saw?** A: Its a Fleam cut saw meaning it will crosscut and rip. It does crosscut faster than it rips, but will do both. **Q: how do you sharpen these saws after you use for awhile?** A: This saw is not one that has hardened teeth. It can be sharpened with a triangular saw file. Takes me about 15 min. Easy to do. **Q: Does anyone know the thickness of the plate on the 5410Y? I'm thinking of converting it to a dovetail saw if the plate is thin enough.** A: I mic'd mine at 0.0275". Blackburn Tools has parts and kits, including the hard to find Saw Bolts and Saw Nuts in brass and bronze. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great budget saw, with a little work it’s a 10. *by S***H on December 17, 2020* For the price this is the best tenon saw out there.
