SHARPENING: Due to the hardness of the steel and the superb way these
saws are sharpened at ADRIA it will take a lot of use to blunten this saw.
However at some stage the saw will need to be sharpened and we recommend
sending it to a reputable saw sharpening service if you are not
familiar with doing it yourself. If doing it yourself use a 5"
double extra slim taper file to file the teeth on the saw. Contact
HNT Gordon if you are having any difficulty in this regard. Saws can be
returned to HNT Gordon for sharpening, see Pricing
for cost.
PURPOSE: This saw is specifically designed to
accurately hand cut dovetail joints. However, it can be used
for any small sawing jobs where accuracy is required. |
