Model Expo Tool - Double-Sided 6" Mini Pull Saw (11/17 TPI)

The Power of the Clean Cut 

Once you start using this Japanese-style mini pull saw, you'll quickly discover dozens of jobs where it simply works better than a hobby knife, razor saw, or side cutters.

Need to trim a dowel perfectly flush with a deck?

Cut a bulkhead without crushing the surrounding wood?

Separate a delicate resin casting?

Shorten a brass or plastic tube?

Remove a stubborn sprue without stressing the part?

This little saw handles all of them with surprising ease.

A hobby knife excels at scoring and trimming. A pull saw excels whenever you need a perfectly straight cut without putting sideways pressure on a delicate part.

Unlike traditional Western saws that cut on the push stroke, this saw cuts as you pull. That keeps the thin blade under tension, allowing it to track straighter with very little effort,and less likely to buckle.

The result is cleaner cuts, greater control, and much less chance of wandering into a part you've already spent hours building.

Two Blades in One

One edge features 17 TPI for fine, clean cuts in delicate materials.

Perfect for:

Basswood

Balsa

Styrene

Resin

Plastic parts

Thin hardwoods

Flip the saw over and you'll find an 11 TPI edge for faster cutting through thicker stock such as:

Bulkheads

Dowels

Structural members

Hardwood strips

Instead of switching between two different saws, simply turn the blade around.

Flexible Where It Matters

One of our the main features is the remarkably flexible SK5 carbon steel blade.

Need to trim a protruding peg or dowel flush with a deck?

The blade bends against the surface, allowing you to make an extremely close cut without the bulky frame of a conventional saw getting in the way.

It's the kind of feature you don't fully appreciate until you've used it once.

Then you'll wonder how you managed without it.

Built for the Modeling Bench

The lightweight, textured handle gives excellent control during delicate work.

The thin blade produces an exceptionally narrow kerf, removing less material and requiring less cleanup afterward.

Whether you're building a Model Shipways frigate, scratch-building a depot for your railroad, or modifying a plastic aircraft kit, this saw quickly becomes one of those tools that earns a permanent place on your bench.
