Crosscut saw with premium quality and design

Thomas Flinn is known for their craftsmanship, and this one-person crosscut saw is no exception. The saw features a 92 cm (3 feet) long blade with the "Great American Tooth" tooth pattern – ideal for both hardwood and softwood.

The blade on the One-Person Crosscut Saw from Thomas Flinn is made of carbon steel with a hardness of 45–49 HRC. This hardness is well chosen because it is:

• Easy to sharpen with regular files – perfect for field use where you don’t have machines.
• Robust enough to hold the edge but not so hard that it breaks under pressure.
• Ideal for natural wood – handles both fresh, moist wood and dry, tough hardwood.
• Easy to maintain – requires only basic tools and a bit of practice.

This balance between hardness and flexibility makes the saw perfect for long-term use in the wilderness, where you need to rely on your tool – and be able to keep it in top condition yourself.

Ergonomic and flexible handle

The saw comes with a sturdy beech handle and an auxiliary handle that can be mounted at the front or back depending on your needs. The handle fits well in the hand, even during extended use, providing maximum control and comfort.

Efficient tooth geometry for optimal performance

The specially designed "Great American Tooth" pattern consists of groups of three teeth with spacing that works both cutting and clearing. This means:

• Fast sawing through dry and fresh wood
• Effective removal of sawdust
• Less friction and reduced risk of clogging
• Perfect for firewood, beams, and woodworking in nature
