Simple project, a nice little dovetail saw.
The long handle helps me to make straight cuts.
Pretty simple project here, two holes for screws, a slit for the saw. Does a nice job too!
The blade I used is sold by Lee Valley Tools. Item number 60T0621
It is a Japanese Kugihiki. A small flush cutting saw that cuts a very smooth line. It is reasonably stiff, yet it can bend so that you can cut the end of a dowel flush with a surface.
Popular Woodworking highly recommended it as a flush cut and dovetail saw as did several other sources who had used it. Some fairly raved about how good a saw it was. I bought a pair of the replacement blades.
After having used the saw, I think I will have to buy a few more replacement blades for it, I love this saw!

Where’s you get the blade?
I updated the article to give the source, Larry. It is from Lee Valley tools, item number 60T0621.
I have bought quite a few Japanese replacement blades to make saws with. Makes for a very high quality home made saw.
