Handsaws

Handsaws come in a variety of shapes and sizes to perform special tasks, whether it's to saw logs, slip into a toolbox, or just give you the feel of what it's like to hold an heirloom. Here are some of our favorites.

Log Saw
The extra-rigid 18-gauge steel blade on this 24-inch saw from Fanno Saw Works can handle rough carpentry, limb pruning, and log cutting. There's a big opening on the laminated hardwood handle to fit a gloved hand—making the saw a favorite with public utility crews. 5 tpi, about $42; Fanno Saw Works
