Knew Concepts 5" Mk.IV Heavy Duty Hand Saw with Lever Tension

The Knew Concepts 5" Mk.IV Heavy Duty Hand Saw with Lever Tension is a great saw for jewelers, woodworkers, and anyone else looking for an easy-to-use and versatile hand saw. It holds 5 1/8" blades, which can be easily swapped out thanks to the lever tension feature. Though some users recommend buying the version with the swivel blade clamp, which allows for 45-degree intervals of rotation, the non-swivel version can be easily remedied by twisting the blade with pliers. Users praise the lightweight, sturdy design of this saw, noting that it allows for easy maneuverability and transfer of energy directly to the material being cut. The lever tension also improves cutting, especially on tight curves. Users have employed this saw with various materials, including Purple Heart and Ziricote hardwoods, and found it to excel in both cases. Though some users have reported receiving a product that did not have the rotating clamp feature that it should have, most reviewers have praised the quality and finish of this saw, with some even calling it a "fun tool to use" that "will last a lifetime."
