Product Description
Before choosing a saw, it helps to settle three things: what you are cutting, how clean you want the edge, and whether you want to mark angles as you go. The Bahco 244-22-U7/8-HP 22in Handsaw 7TPI Wood Plastics covers all three with one blade and one handle.
What it is meant for
A universal handsaw for wood, plastics, laminates and soft metals. That makes it a sensible all-rounder for carpentry, construction and general workshop jobs, where one saw has to cope with timber, laminate boards, plastic material and light metal sections.
The specs in plain English
- 22 inch blade, a full-length hand saw.
- 7 TPI: teeth per inch. A mid-range count that balances cutting speed against finish quality.
- Universal tooth pattern, shaped for push cutting.
- Hardpoint teeth: induction hardened (heat-treated), so they stay sharp over extended use without frequent resharpening.
Handle
The two-component handle is designed for a comfortable, controlled grip and is secured to the blade with screws. Built-in 45° and 90° guides let you mark a quick angle on the workpiece, handy when you are measuring and cutting in the same pass.
Used by hand, it needs no power source.
