Overview
The SUIZAN SR-001 is a general purpose handsaw with a Japanese steel blade and a wood handle. It's priced at $42.33 and stands out in this batch with 9,700 reviews, by far the highest review count among the saws covered here, at a 4.8 star average.
The blade measures 9.5 inches and the saw weighs a listed 0.2 kilograms. With 200 units bought in the last month, demand sits in the middle of this batch, behind the Klein 31737 (400), CRAFTSMAN CMHT20138 (2,000), and SUIZAN SFL-001 (300).
