釘挽き

Kugihiki

Flush Cut Saw

A saw featuring an incredibly thin, highly flexible blade with absolutely no 'set' to the teeth. Used to cut wooden dowels completely flush to a surface without leaving a proud witness mark or marring the surrounding wood. The flexible blade flexes flat against the surface, guiding the cut. An irreplaceable finishing tool.
