I'd like to offer you a Bad Axe Tool Works saw as it would have appeared fresh out of a 19th Century American sawmaker's shop with your choice of sawback alloy in gunsmith-blued carbon or bright-polished stainless steel, brass, or copper; slotted or split-nut fasteners in three alloys and four finishes, and a traditional open or closed handle in Cherry, Walnut, or Mesquite.
Just starting out with hand tools? Consider my Bad Axe 14" Sash saw filed 12 ppi hybrid-cut, and learn more about how I will custom-file your saw to fit your needs best through my saw sharpening techniques.
This above all: whether you purchase a Bad Axe or one of my vintage saws, my job is to provide you with an incredibly sharp tool tailored for your requirements that cuts true to the line fresh out of the box.
Put a Bad Axe saw in your arsenal and find out why Popular Woodworking Magazine nominated Bad Axe Tool Works for one of the Best New Tools of 2009, and Favorite New Tools of 2011!
Got . . . copper? Combine my new copper sawback with a walnut or mesquite handle and hot-blued/black oxided-fasteners for a truly stunning look. Bad Axe now offers optional brass backs as well.
I offer you choice: choice in pitch, wood species, alloys, fasteners, and plate thickness. I will build a saw unique to your chosen design and purpose–a superbly-crafted tool reminiscent of an earlier time in America, when excellence was not an option, and communication moved at the speed of a horse. So when you purchase from Bad Axe, you will take delivery on a saw just right for you, sharp as hell right out of the box, and ready to put to immediate use.

If Bad Axe saws were motorcycles, we think they would be Harley-Davidsons. The craftsmanship on these saws is incredible. They have a different design aesthetic than other premium saws: These tools have a decidedly American look to them with steel backs and cherry handles. When I take them to shows, people can't help but pick them up. A+ work, from tooth to tote.

Bad Axe saws are the absolute standard of quality & function in hand saws today. And damn are they sharp! Now if I can get past how great they look I can honestly say they function about twice that amount. Really–these saws cut so fast yet so smooth it is absolutely amazing. Now when I say fast I mean these saws cut fast!
