Which Should You Buy?
Temple Tool Co Dozuki Crosscut 240mm
A beautifully made dozuki that has earned a cult following in the woodworking community. The crosscut teeth are razor-sharp out of the box, and the stiff back spine makes dovetail cuts effortless. Handcrafted in Japan.
Pros
- + Exceptional sharpness out of the box
- + Stiff back spine for precise straight cuts
- + Handcrafted in Japan — premium build quality
- + Perfect for dovetails and fine joinery
Cons
- − Premium price for a hand saw
- − Not widely available in retail stores
- − Teeth cannot be resharpened — blade replacement only
Temple Tool Co Dozuki Universal 150mm
A compact dozuki that handles both cross and rip cuts. The 150mm blade is ideal for small-scale joinery, model making, and detail work where a full-size saw would be unwieldy.
Pros

- + Compact 150mm blade for tight spaces
- + Lower price entry point to Temple Tool quality
- + Perfect for detail work and small joints
Cons
- − Too small for full-size furniture joinery
