Veritas - Veritas Crosscut Handsaw
May 27, 2015
Value-priced saw is fast on rip and crosscuts
This saw did very well in all of the tests. It ripped extremely fast and tracked great during ripcuts. Crosscuts were very quick, too. It also started smoothly in both rip- and crosscuts. Overall, this is a very good saw and a fantastic value at just $79.

Bahco 6-Inch Card Scraper
The size and thickness are what matter here. A consistent performer, this Bahco scraper is found in many shops we visit.
Veritas Micro-Adjust Wheel Marking Gauge
The adjuster runs through the beam from a small knob at the back end right to the cutting wheel, which moves in and out as you turn the knob. This arrangement works well but makes adjustments a two-handed operation, requiring a little more effort.
Marking knife: Hock Double-Bevel Violin Knife, 3/4 in.
This heavy, double-beveled knife stays on track in all directions, and works just fine without adding a handle.
