Veritas Dovetail & Small Crosscut Saws

Veritas Dovetail & Small Crosscut Saws

Veritas has merged modern materials and traditional design to create these well balanced, excellent cutting joinery saws. The 9-1/4” blade is made of high-carbon steel and has a spine of high-pressure injection molded resin. The resin backer uses stainless steel powder & glass fibers to keep the blade straight & true. Patterned from antique saws with elegantly curved handles, the saw's hardwood handle nestles into your hand to give you exceptional cutting control. Depth of cut is 1-9/16". OAL is 14".

Dovetail Saw

The standard Dovetail Saw has 14 rip cut teeth per inch (TPI) with a 14° rake angle, 0.003" of set and a 60° included angle. It is best used with stock thicker than 1/2".

Fine Cut Dovetail Saw

The Fine-Cut Dovetail Saw has 20 rip cut teeth per inch (TPI) with a 14° rake angle, 0.003" of set and a 60° included angle. It is best used with stock 1/2" and thinner.

Small Crosscut Saw

The Small Crosscut Saw has 16 teeth per inch (TPI) with a 15° rake & bevel angles and 0.003" of set. The crosscut pattern teeth have alternating bevel to slice wood fibers cleanly when cutting across the grain. It will cut straighter and leave a much smoother finish in crosscuts than the dovetail saws. Use this saw when cutting tenon shoulders.
