Thomas Flinn – World-class traditional saws for outdoor life and bushcraft

Thomas Flinn & Co. is the UK’s last remaining traditional saw manufacturer – a brand that since 1923 has stood for uncompromising quality, craftsmanship, and durability. The company is based in Sheffield, and all Thomas Flinn products are made locally with a focus on classic methods, sustainability, and precision.

Their saws are used today by professional carpenters, forestry workers, bushcrafters, and outdoor enthusiasts worldwide who appreciate manual craftsmanship and the timeless design of the saws. The brand is especially known for its Crosscut saws that allow you to work efficiently in nature – without engine noise or the need for fuel.

One-man crosscut saw – Great American Tooth

Thomas Flinn’s one-man crosscut saw is equipped with the classic "Great American Tooth" pattern, which combines cutting teeth and raker teeth in an efficient formation. The saw is 3 feet (approx. 92 cm) long and has a blade thickness of 1.5 mm and a blade height of 122 mm. It comes with an ergonomic D-shaped handle made of clear lacquered beechwood and an extra helper handle that can be mounted at the front of the blade for extra control or to convert the saw into a temporary two-man saw.

The blade is hardened to 45–49 HRC, making it easy to sharpen and maintain. This makes the saw ideal for cutting through dry, medium to hard wood – perfect for preparing firewood or building primitive structures in the wild.

Two-man crosscut saw – Classic strength for big tasks

Thomas Flinn’s two-man saw is designed to efficiently handle larger logs and demanding tasks in the forest. Available in lengths from 4 to 7 feet (approx. 122–213 cm), this saw features either "Plain Tooth" or "Great American Tooth" tooth patterns. The blade is 1.5 mm thick and 133 mm high, ensuring stable and precise cutting. The handles are made of clear lacquered beechwood, providing a comfortable and secure grip during use.

This saw is ideal for felling trees and cutting large logs, making it an indispensable tool for serious bushcrafters and outdoor enthusiasts.

Maintenance – Keep your saw sharp with Thomas Flinn files

To ensure optimal performance and long lifespan for your saws, Thomas Flinn offers specially designed files for sharpening saw teeth. These files are made with the same high quality as the saws and are essential for proper maintenance. A suitable beechwood handle can be purchased separately for better control and comfort during sharpening.
