This double-edged ryoba pull saw has a 240 mm blade that cuts on the pull stroke, keeping tension for accurate, controlled cuts. One edge offers 17 teeth per inch for crosscutting, the other 9 teeth per inch for ripping. Hardened tips retain sharpness during extended use, and the 61 HRC blade is fully replaceable for lasting woodworking performance.
The Kirschen 4420240 double-edged ryoba pull saw features two distinct tooth rows on a single 240 mm blade. One edge is optimized for crosscutting across the grain, while the opposite edge is designed for ripping along the grain. As a Japanese-style pull saw, it removes material on the pull stroke, keeping the thin blade in tension for precise, controlled cuts.
Cutting under tension results in a straighter kerf, reduced vibration, and less risk of blade buckling. The 240 mm blade length is ideal for cutting stock, trimming battens, and fitting components during assembly. Hardened tooth tips ensure lasting sharpness over extended periods of use. The saw’s total length is 560 mm, and it weighs 197 g. The blade is replaceable, allowing you to restore cutting performance without replacing the handle.
The two tooth rows divide the work between crosscutting and ripping. The crosscut side has 17 teeth per inch for clean, smooth cuts across the wood grain. The rip side features 9 teeth per inch, providing a coarser pitch that efficiently removes chips when cutting along the grain. The blade is hardened to 61 HRC, and the sharpening angle is 0 degrees.
Combining both tooth pitches on one blade reduces the number of saws needed at the bench. The thin blade remains flexible for flush cuts and is useful in tight spaces, such as inside frames or next to fitted parts. Hardened tips slow tooth wear, maintaining consistent kerf quality during long sessions.
The long handle allows for a secure grip with both hands, distributing pulling force evenly and helping to keep cuts straight. External dimensions are 560 x 90 x 20 mm, and the saw weighs 197 g, making it easy to control during prolonged use. The replaceable blade design extends the tool’s service life after the teeth wear out.
Pull-stroke cutting requires less downward pressure than push saws. The user guides the saw while the teeth do the work. Starting a cut is easier since the blade does not need to be forced into the wood. The rip side’s wider gullets help eject shavings and reduce clogging, especially in softer woods.
This saw is suitable for hand joinery, furniture making, and timber framing. Typical uses include cutting stock to length, sizing battens, and squaring small sections. The crosscut edge is ideal for shoulder lines and visible end cuts, while the rip edge is used for cuts along the grain, such as reducing width or splitting blanks. With both functions on one blade, fewer tools are needed on site.
Catalog specifications list a sharpening angle of 0 degrees and blade hardness of 61 HRC. The saw measures 560 mm in length, 90 mm in width, and 20 mm in height, with a weight of 197 g. The blade is 240 mm long, with 17 teeth per inch on the crosscut side and 9 teeth per inch on the rip side. Manufactured in Japan.
