awesome video scott! i just broke a couple teeth off my DeWalt hand backsaw and wanted to get into the better japanese brands and this was the PERFECT video i needed!
I have that 18cm short set - Ryoba, Kataba and Dozuki - It's a good starter set if you're doing small projects, furniture or stuff that isn't thick. Which seems rather obvious to say about short saws...
keep up the good work mr brown more pareau and cameron please they strike me as awesome fellow associates and thats what you need in construction trade
I have one by Stanley Fatmax and it's terrible! Well, it cuts nice for now, but it's only had absolute minimal use and already 4 or 5 teeth are missing. I've only used on very small wood cuts, and quite gently too. I'm going to look for a different brand and save the Stanley for more rugged work were I don't care if it dies.
Wonder what the best saw is for cutting the little bit left inside a 90x90 post slot once you have done your skill saw cuts ? A normal euro saw does the job but kinda awkward
oh man! will have to wait until next time to get some sweet discounts on japanese saws... already spent this months play money (and next probably!) and it's only the 4th haha. Tell Gaston to get more RZ mask stuff in stock like F3 filters, so i dont have to order from 'murica next time! :P
Time isn't the problem in Japan. It's how perfect you can do something, they have masters in Japan. Which means you a min of 60 years of experience in 1 job, and it has to be proven as well with tests.
The why us because they cut on the pull not the push. With a push cut if it gets difficult the cut is more likely to deviate, whereas with a pull cut you just keep pulling in the right direction.
Planning my move to NZ so I don’t miss out on any more tool deals from Gaston.
Loll i was talking about it with my brother in law 🤣
No one builds like Gaston. No one smiles like Gaston. No one explains Japanese saws like Gaston. 😁
As a father of little girls, this made me chuckle! 😁
Thanks Scott! My old man has been using these saws and swears by them. Nice to see other people backing the appreciation!
Vermont, USA
I honestly love how inclusive you are dude, Bringing all these other people along in your YT journey is so cool.
loved it! thanks Scott and extra big thank you to Gaston. So helpful!!!
Thank you for that info Scott! And thank you Gaston! :-)
Great salesman/educator! Thanks Scott!
Thanks Scott and Gaston.
EXCELLENT! Thank you, Scott and Gaston!!
Thank you Gaston and Scott.
hope both you get loads of sales and you can do more spots/promotions like this - I know what saw I buying when I need one
Great video! I love the community of builders and suppliers that you have in Auckland. We are much more cut throat here in the US in the big cities.
He’s like the Jean Claud Van Dame of saws 😎
you mean Sawn Claude Van Damme?
awesome video scott! i just broke a couple teeth off my DeWalt hand backsaw and wanted to get into the better japanese brands and this was the PERFECT video i needed!
Definitely want one over here in the US!
Well, this is very interesting for me. Thanks for this well explained video!
Hey Scott keep the great video coming
I have that 18cm short set - Ryoba, Kataba and Dozuki - It's a good starter set if you're doing small projects, furniture or stuff that isn't thick. Which seems rather obvious to say about short saws...
Gaston's the man!
What about Australia? Where do we buy them?
there's a magnetic adjustable guide that you can use with these saws to keep your cuts straight....worth having in your kit
Wicked, i am going to order some right now. Cheers Pete
love gaston too
Great video love this guy keep them comeing
Great vid, those black handled Razor saws are fantastic for fine fine cuts. The blades are only about 0.3 or 0.5mm thick.
Yeah man, those blades are crazy thin
Thats what im talking about !!! Keep them coming Scott !!!!!
If you’re a UK’er then Axminster have a very large range at pretty good prices too.
Great video as always Scott.
👍🇬🇧
Cheers I'm gonna check them out
Paul Worldwide

I love mine, I brought mine with me from Europe to Colombia, and glad I did, because I have yet to see them here.
Gaston the God! Always love a video when he's in your town!
Bugger! You just cost me $115!!! But two very nice saws coming to Christchurch.
I like this guy. He's cool and excited about the tools. ;)
He's literally got any carpenters dream job haha. Of course he's enjoying himself
Very informative video thank you!
Hi,trying to saw one small wooden bedside table legs to travel with,what do you recommend? Thanks
keep up the good work mr brown more pareau and cameron please they strike me as awesome fellow associates and thats what you need in construction trade
You should do more videos with you and pareao skating. It’s sick!
Your videos are so slick, yet so relaxed, it’s mind-blowing to see outtakes. I don’t know if that’s in a good way? 🧐🥺
I want one now. Not a builder but enjoy building stuff
Great viddy Scott
Hi Scott, could you make an video of how you maintain your powertools?(washing and grease) ?
Useful, helpful and insightful 😀
I'm recent follower that discovers this gems between the various episodes....

That flush cut saw is the best I've owned.
Looks like an episode of Dexter!
Watching this video cost me $70! Haha looking forward to my new saw arriving!
Same here!
😂😂
in UK the full set of 3x Gyokucho hand saws cost £90
Just bought the flash folding saw that I'll probably only ever use on PVC pipe lol
Axminster tools in the UK keep a good range in stock!
I've had to hold off going to axminster... theres so much stuff that I want but dont have the money Haha
Been wanting one for a while!
Very cool. Thanks boet
So now I know. Thank you
Bummer, code stopped working already. But great video. Stumbled across your channel after watching the Samurai Builder. Subscribed.
Brilliant. Thank you
Hey Scott great video mate, don't forget the Aussie views. 👍 Keep up the good work mate.
Dictum are great, their website is super nice.
thanks from the uk
so exciting ! thanks
Great video, one of your best, simple but Informative 👍🇬🇧
Love the Japanese tools they are on another level
Wonder what the best saw is for cutting the little bit left inside a 90x90 post slot once you have done your skill saw cuts ? A normal euro saw does the job but kinda awkward
Hey can you ask Gaston where to buy things in Australia?
oh man! will have to wait until next time to get some sweet discounts on japanese saws... already spent this months play money (and next probably!) and it's only the 4th haha.
Tell Gaston to get more RZ mask stuff in stock like F3 filters, so i dont have to order from 'murica next time! :P
Thank you vary helpful
Gaston, do you sell to Australia?
Yes we do all the time. Just flick us an email and I can find out shipping cost for you. cheers
where is the US Gaston. we need one in Virginia. 🤙🤙🤙
EPIC.... Simply epic...
Do these ones have hardened teeth?
Where's gaston from?
I like one of them.but could not get
I want one og those handsaws. From Denmark where do i find IT.
From Dictum website. That will be your best choice. cheers
THey look very great, and probably more safer than the saw that most carpenter's use nowadays
Where in aust. Is the best place For them
I want a personal hand tool guy.
I want one just cause
Princess auto in Canada, good luck kids!
Gotta find a supplier in the UK. Cheers 👍🤙
Workshopheaven.co.uk, but be careful, once you start, you can't stop!
@@tcr_tagger3738 wow, where to start, thanks buddy
@@piranhatools3198 thanks Gaston
these saws definitely pique my interest however the speed at which you should make a cut as to not damage the blade or workpiece is concerning
Hi Andy, Slow speed is just for beginners. You can go faster once you get more practise. cheers
Time isn't the problem in Japan.
It's how perfect you can do something, they have masters in Japan.
Which means you a min of 60 years of experience in 1 job, and it has to be proven as well with tests.
dude its 0502am what the hell get some sleep , i mean i'm about to head to site but get some sleep don't cut yourself up XD XD
dig the mini film's man
Great viddy Scott. Learned alot this evening. Thanks
1:41
*sees youtube closed captions*
FBI: FREEZE! Drop the saw!
There are brands that cut faster and cleaner than Gyokucho. Ginnokiba, Kijima Seikou and Nakaya Eaks to name a few.
Where's the good place to buy these saws in Israel?
Oh, nuts, we almost don't use wood in building😉😀😬
For us Americans, I think amazon is the best option for these saws
Yes it is.
You forgot about your neighbour, Australia mate
I see what you did there with your screen shot...
Never really answered your own question of why japanese hand saws. Just went though the different options and what they work best for.
The why us because they cut on the pull not the push. With a push cut if it gets difficult the cut is more likely to deviate, whereas with a pull cut you just keep pulling in the right direction.
😯👍👍👍
I bet Cameron has 2 of each...
Pretty much most of the ones you have seen on the table!!
I’ve been using them for over 20 years...they are so much better....I still have about 6 European hand saws
Japanese handsets are so much better
Cross cut and raping 😂
I did it myself thanks to Woodprix.
日本ののこぎりだ！
What is raping?
First!
I still don't see the value of these. What you call a european saw is the only saw you need
Havent watched this yet but the answer is coz hes got too much fucking money to spend on tools!
