Cross Cut Hand-Saws

Crosscut saws can trace their earliest roots to ancient times. There are historical records indicating that crosscut saws were employed in parts of the Roman Empire, though their construction would likely differ from what we know today as a saw. Although we know the Romans used them, they did so in small quantity. The use of such saws was rare and not widespread. In the 15th century, however, all that changed.

The crosscut hand saw became a popular implement in Europe. It was around this time that the crosscut saw solidified itself in human history as one of the most important technological and revolutionary achievements of all time. Since that time the crosscut saw has become popular with loggers and anyone l looking for high-performance crosscut action. Today the crosscut saw and many other hand tools, enjoys a rich history steeped in the centuries-old practices and traditions of master woodsmen from all over the world. The crosscut saw is a mainstay in the history of human technological development.
