About Pull Saw Blades
Pull saw blades are essential replacement components for Japanese-style pull saws, designed to cut on the pull stroke rather than the push. MyToolShed.co.uk stocks a comprehensive range of pull saw replacement blades from Bahco, one of the most trusted names in professional hand tools. These precision-engineered blades allow tradespeople and DIY enthusiasts to restore their pull saws to peak performance without purchasing entirely new tools.
Available in various tooth configurations including fine, extra fine, and double-sided options, pull saw blades at MyToolShed deliver clean, accurate cuts with minimal effort. The thin kerf and sharp teeth characteristic of pull saw design reduce binding and produce smoother finishes than traditional Western-style saws, making them particularly valuable for detailed joinery and precision carpentry work.

Choosing The Right Pull Saw Blades

Safety Information
When replacing and using pull saw blades, observe these safety precautions:
- Always wear safety glasses to protect against fine sawdust and debris
- Handle new blades carefully – pull saw teeth are extremely sharp
- Ensure the blade is correctly and securely fitted before use
- Keep fingers clear of the cutting line and maintain proper hand positioning
- Store blades in protective sleeves or covers when not in use
- Replace damaged or worn blades immediately to prevent accidents and poor cut quality
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I replace my pull saw blade?
Replace your blade when you notice reduced cutting efficiency, bent or broken teeth, or when cuts require excessive force. With proper care, a quality blade should last many months of regular professional use.
Can I sharpen pull saw blades?
Most modern pull saw blades feature impulse-hardened teeth that cannot be effectively sharpened. Replacement is more cost-effective and ensures optimal cutting performance.
Are Bahco pull saw blades compatible with other brands?
