Traditional tenon saws are distinguished from dovetail saws by their size. The longer, wider blades saw faster through much deeper cuts. There are fewer teeth for sawing through tenon cheeks and other stock that is far thicker than is usually encountered in dovetails. The Lie-Nielsen Tenon Rip Saw is considerably beefier than Lie-Nielsen’s acclaimed dovetail and carcass saws, but it’s built to the same high standards of quality and finish.
Most of your time sawing tenons is spent cutting the cheeks along the grain, so this model is filed for rip cuts: 11 ppi, with nearly vertical tooth faces. The solid brass backs maintain tension for straight, precise, sawing. A classic Disston-pattern handle completes the package.
