Customers like the sharpness of the saw. They mention that it cuts nice, the cutting teeth are incredibly sharp, and it makes very clean cuts. It's good for small cuts where power tools would be dangerous, and works well. It cuts smoothly, with minimal kerf, and is very flexible. It comes in handy for flush cuts, and does a decent job at flush cutting dowels or sawing small pieces.

A good saw, but with limits

A good saw, but with limits
I've used this Irwin saw happily for lots of things--it has a very fine kerf, is fairly aggressive without causing much tear-out, has a fairly ergonomic handle for saws of this type--but it met its match on 1/4" plywood. The picture says it all. I've used the pictured Japanese pull-saw (roughly $30) to slice through many dozens of feet of thicker plywood, but the Irwin was toothless after about 7 inches.

These little saws are very handy to have in my tool bucket. This is the third one of these that I've purchased, and I'll probably buy another when I mess this one up...but...
The kerf of the blade is very thin. Sometimes this is great for bending the blade into an awkward position for a flush cut, and sometimes it's a pain when the blade binds up and bends.
Don't get me wrong, when the saw is new it cuts pretty well. I even used it in an emergency to cut a 2x4 once. It cuts pretty clean with minimal tear out in most material. But even with just intermittent use, these saws only last about 18 to 24 months on a jobsite.
For me, the compact size and affordable price make this a must have in my tool kit for occasions when I don't want to go all the way out to my truck to get a corded saw for one cut.

Professional luthier. Sharp, accurate, thin kerf. Replaced same that lasted 5-6 years heavy use, til teeth started breaking. They don’t sell a replacement blade, but saw is affordable. Cuts on the pull stroke. I saved the blade guard from the old one to keep on the back edge for greater stiffness.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very useful saw.
Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2016
Verified Purchase
I love this pull saw. I just wish I would have bought one of these years ago. The saw is razor sharp so I do have to be careful when using it. This saw cuts on the pull and not the push so it takes much less effort to cut wood and I have much better control. The cuts are very fine and clean with virtually no splintering.
I also use this to cut PVC pipe and boards and it does a beautiful job,

Since the blade can be removed it looks like you could buy replacements but Irwin does not sell replacement blades. The blade is the expensive part of the saw so they must figure people would not be that interested in saving a dollar buy buying just the blade. Plus stores are not too keen about stocking replacement parts for anything.

Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2023

The saw works well but the teeth break away within a few months. I have gone through 2 of these in about a year and only use it for cutting off pieces I have turned on a wood lathe. The second one has what looks like a replaceable blade but cannot find any replacements online. I like the way it cuts. I just wish it lasted longer. Not willing to pay $16 bucks for something that doesn't last longer.

Aunque la hoja se siente endeble, con un poco de cuidado se logran cortes limpios y finos rápidamente. Sólo hay que desarrollar cierta habilidad para lograr los resultados deseados.

This is an excellent pull saw. The handle is made to replace the blade but separate blades are not available. The price is now over the top. A $7.00 saw costing $26.90 not really value.
Irwin products such as this force one to buy Chinese.
