The saws are also handy for small trimming jobs (nuts, saddles, bridge blanks, violin pegs and soundposts, for example), and are useful for cleaning fret slots.

Each saw has a 5" x 7/16" (127mm x 11.11mm) steel blade with 22 teeth per inch, and a comfortable turned wooden handle.

The 0.010" Gauged Saw is included in the Essential Nut Making Tool Kit, which has all the basic tools you'll need for shaping, string-spacing, slotting and fitting string nuts like a pro.

Gauged saws

Very nice value and very handy in the shop for much more than nuts and bridges. Only disappointment is that they should be pull cut instead of push. That would give much better control.

Excellent saw set!

These saws are exactly the right tools for starting slots in nuts and bridges.

1-Star to drag the average down!

This saw is the right thickness, and the fact that it is a blade w/out anything in front/behind is great. HOWEVER... I have cut myself several times and scoured several pieces because it is a PUSH-cut saw. It makes no sense whatsoever. With a saw this small, you will be cutting small things, meaning you need control. All they had to do was put the blade in the handle the other way, and problem solved! Why couldn't they do that? So frustrating! Pull-cut!!!

Quality is amazing indeed, but this saw is really must be pull-cut instead of push-cut (as it designed now). Pull-cut saws are easier to control, and this truly makes sense if you trying to make an accurate cut. Nice price, btw.

I like these the best out of all the nut files I have used.

easy to use, no chipping, smooth cut, smaller size gets larger when moving from side to side and rolling the file. Perfect upgrade from the small skinny files.
