The Hishika 240mm Ryoba Saw is a versatile, double-edged Japanese pull saw. The term Ryoba signifies the dual-edge design, featuring a crosscut blade on one side and a rip cut blade on the opposite side, making it a general-purpose saw suitable for a wide range of woodworking tasks, including deeper cuts, dimensioning wood, and joinery. The 240mm size is a standard, popular length for general work. This Hishika saw is noted for its quality at its price point, as the blade is hand tensioned and scraped by artisans, which results in a thinner, stiffer, and more accurate cutting instrument than a typical replaceable blade saw. This precision tool is also considered a good saw for beginners to learn the Japanese pull-stroke technique, where the saw cuts as it is drawn toward the user.
