Which Should You Buy?
Temple Tool Co Dozuki Rip-Cut 240mm
The rip-cut companion to Temple's crosscut dozuki. Designed for cutting along the grain — tenon cheeks, rip cuts in thin stock, and splitting joints. Same exceptional build quality.
Pros
- + Purpose-built rip-cut teeth for clean grain-direction cuts
- + Same premium build as the crosscut version
- + Thin kerf reduces waste
- + Excellent for tenon cheeks
Cons
- − Only for rip cuts — you'll need the crosscut version too
- − Premium price
- − Limited availability
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
- + Versatile universal-cut teeth — works in any direction
- + 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
- − Limited cutting depth due to compact blade
- − Back spine limits depth of cut
