The Pax 8" Mini Gents Saw (101-681) is a real workhorse. This saw has an 8" long blade with 20 teeth per inch (TPI) and can cut up to 1-1/8" deep. It's perfect for fine joinery work like cutting dovetails and tenons in hardwoods and softwood. As with most traditional "western" style saws that cut on the push stroke, the folded brass back adds stiffness to the .019" thick steel saw plate.

The PAX 8
The PAX 8" Mini Gents Saw (101-681) is a perfect choice for cutting dovetails and tenons in all sorts of furniture projects.

The teeth are filed rip as they should be for dovetailing and have a fine set of roughly .004" per side. The straight turned walnut handle is what makes this a "Gents saw" and provides a comfortable grip that many find encourages a straight cutting stroke. This handle style is great for beginners looking to get their feet wet in hand-cut joinery and the experienced hand tool woodworker alike.

The PAX 6
The PAX 6" Razor Saw (101-680) is designed for the most delicate of work and features a blade with an astounding 40 teeth per inch (TPI).

The Pax 6" Razor Saw (101-680) is the little brother to the 8" Gents Saw. In hand, they feel very similar because of the turned Walnut handle and hefty brass back.  The 6" Razor Saw, however, has an ultra-thin .014" thick blade with an ultra-fine 40 teeth per inch.

The PAX 6
The PAX 6" Razor Saw (101-680) is perfect for work that other saws are simply too large to handle. Shown cutting small dovetails in 1/4" thick African Mahogany the Razor Saw has 40 TPI that produce an extremely clean cut.

This saw is ideal for the finest work such as joinery for small boxes, (known as Kumiko), and it is a favorite of model makers. This little saw can cut up to 3/4" deep and with its super thin blade and no-tooth set, it produces an extremely smooth cut.

The PAX 6
The PAX 6" Flush Cut Saw (101-682) is perfect for trimming tenons and dowels flush with the face of another workpiece.

The PAX 6" Flush Cut Saw is what you could call a "problem solver". While it is roughly the same size as the razor saw, it has a very short brass back and teeth that cut on the pull stroke allowing the blade to flex and cut things like tenons and dowels "flush" to an adjoining surface.

The PAX 6
The PAX 6" Flush Cut Saw's flexible blade and teeth that cut on the pull stroke allow the saw plate to lay flat. The teeth have no set, greatly reducing the chance of scratching the adjoining work surface.

The blade is made from a very flexible alloy steel with 20 teeth per inch allowing it to cut quickly while leaving a smooth surface. Similar to the 6" Razor Saw, the Flush Cut Saw's teeth have no set. This protects the work surface from being scratched while cutting. This is a saw you will want to have around for projects big and small.
