Handsaw (Crosscut, rip, or combination)


Used to cut wood planks, sheets or panels to desired size.

Back Saw (Tenon Saw)


Primarily used to cut fine joints in wood, as in a tenon, lap, or dovetail. It can also be used in conjunction with a miter box to cut accurate 45- or 90-degree angles.

Coping Saw


Used in making curved cuts in wood or plastic.

Compass Saw (Keyhole Saw)


Used to cut holes in a panel. This saw is not restricted to an edge of a workpiece, like the coping saw, because of the lack of a frame.

1. Cross Cut- cuts across grain of lumber


2. Rip Cut- cuts parallel to the grain of lumber


3. Combination- cuts lumber in any direction


4. Carbide Tipped- cuts particle board or lumber with the primary advantage of teeth remaining sharper for long periods of time
