KAKURI Mini Japanese Pull Saw Set with Carrying Case - Ryoba 5-inch, Flush Cut 5-inch, Dozuki Dovetail 5-inch, Keyhole 3-inch - Made in Japan

Compact, capable precision with a traditional pull-cut design

The KAKURI Mini Japanese Pull Saw Set brings four precision tools into a compact, easy-to-carry package. Made in Japan with premium Japanese carbon steel blades and beech wood handles, this quartet is built to deliver clean, controlled cuts across a range of tasks—from rough ripping to fine joinery.

What’s inside and what each saw is best for

Every saw is purpose-built for a specific job, using a traditional pull-cut action that offers great control and reduced effort compared with push cuts. The kit includes four blades:

• Ryoba 5-inch blade — versatile for both rip and cross cuts with a single tool.
• Flush Cut 5-inch blade — ideal for trimming dowels and pegs flush to surfaces.
• Dozuki fine cut 5-inch blade — optimized for precise joinery and delicate work.
• Keyhole 3-inch blade — suited for curved cuts and small profiles.

Rugged build, reliable performance

The blades are crafted from premium Japanese carbon steel (SK-5) and go through heat treatment to sustain sharpness over repeated use. The cutting edges vary by blade type, with thickness and kerf tuned for each task. The natural beech handles provide a comfortable, secure grip, reducing fatigue during longer sessions. A brass rivet system anchors the blades, while the heavy-duty canvas roll case protects storage and ensures straightforward transport.
