The OK265 Shogun Hassunme Kataba is specifically designed for crosscutting. It cuts very fast thanks to its narrow kerf and medium fine 16tpi tooth pattern.

The blade fixes to a traditional rattan wrapped Paulownia wooden handle that offers fantastic control.

It can be paired with OK265RC Rip Cut Saw, to handle all eventualities.

3) Electrical-pulse hardened teeth to maintain sharpness up to 3 times longer than conventional saws.
