Buy yourself a Japanese pull saw. I find they are superior, easier to control, and they can make finer cuts then the old Dovetail saws. I learn using those old dovetail saws. funny thing is, I/we rarely use any hand cutting tools anymore but a chisel or a block plane. The one younger guy on our crew was complaining about the lack of a table saw (bone head forgot to take it from shop) so I had to show the dumb ass now to cut a miter piece with a hand saw to finish the toe kick. He was shocked that there are people that can still cut straight with a hand saw. We will see how he works out for us. Hes new, been with us for two months.
