Overview
The CRAFTSMAN CMHT20138 is priced at $9.99 and built with a metal blade and plastic handle, measuring 12 inches in length. It carries a 4.6 star rating from 4,727 reviews, one of the larger review bases in this Handsaws category.
What sets this saw apart is demand: 2,000 buyers purchased it in the last month, far above every other model in this lineup. That combination of a recognizable CRAFTSMAN brand name, a $9.99 price, and a 4.6 star rating clearly resonates with a large volume of buyers.
The spec sheet itself is relatively light, listing only the metal blade material, plastic handle, and 12 inch length, without weight or overall dimension detail.

Performance notes
A 12 inch metal blade is a common general purpose length in this category; the CMHT20138 differentiates itself less on documented specs and more on proven, high volume buyer demand.
