15 best hacksaws

If the definition can be applied to a hacksaw for wood - professional, then we have just such a model. The German manufacturer took into account all the nuances and used them in his product. Here, the teeth are sharpened on three sides, and the teeth themselves are hardened, which allows them not to become dull for a long time.

In addition, it is a universal tool that can cut not only wood, but also plywood, as well as laminate.The teeth on the blade are very small and as sharp as possible, which allows you to make a very thin cut without chips and even along the wood fibers. The manufacturer paid a lot of attention to the ergonomics of the tool. The handle is plastic and has a rubber insert in place of the grip. It is easy and convenient to work with such a tool, even for a long time.

A hand saw is not the most expensive tool, but among them there are often products that are quite expensive. It is difficult to say whether it makes sense to overpay, especially if you do not use the tool so often. And before us is the most budget option, the price of which is less than 400 rubles.

Despite its cheapness, the model has hardened teeth, and judging by the reviews, this is true. True, sharpening here is only on two sides, that is, the cut will be somewhat more difficult than with three-sided sharpening. It should be understood that sharpening teeth in three planes is quite difficult, and many manufacturers avoid this moment in order to reduce the cost of their products. Yes, it will not work to call this hacksaw the best, but it is the cheapest, and this is its main advantage.

A professional hacksaw, in addition to three-sided sharpening of the teeth, also has a blade hardening. And this is a very complex technological process, since it is the teeth that need to be hardened, and not the entire blade. If you harden the entire blade, it will simply break under loads, and the hardening process leads to a significant increase in the cost of the tool. But not in this case.

Before us is the best hacksaw for wood in terms of value for money.As they say in the reviews, the teeth here are really hardened, and this is not an empty advertising statement. They are sharpened on three sides, and for a long time they do not get dull and do their job perfectly. And as an added bonus, there is a ruler scale on the back of the blade. As they say, a trifle, but nice.

A professional hacksaw is a very flexible concept, and it is difficult to say what criteria it must meet. Before us is a popular Swedish brand, known throughout the world as a manufacturer of quality tools, and in this case also inexpensive.

Here, the teeth are sharpened on three sides and the blade is made of alloyed thin steel with a thickness of only 2 millimeters. This allows you to make very thin cuts without stressing your hands. A handle made of foamed polyurethane also plays a significant role in ergonomics, and the canvas itself is not just attached to the handle, but is completely covered with a pad, which significantly increases the tool's service life. Reviews about the product are only positive, which is not surprising given the experience and celebrity of the manufacturer, and it is worth noting that this is the cheapest wood saw from the brand's line.

Before us is a hand saw for wood, made by a popular Chinese brand that deserves respect for the quality and durability of its products. Not the cheapest option on the market, but with a whole list of advantages. For example, three-sided sharpening, which allows cutting when holding the blade in both directions.Given the blade length of 450 millimeters, such a tool will quickly deal with any wooden workpiece.

Also in reviews of this product, a comfortable handle made of hard plastic and with a rubber insert at the grip point is often mentioned. This is the most comfortable hand tool that you can work with for a long time and not experience fatigue. In addition, the blade is made of hardened steel, which means that it will not often become dull, as is the case with cheaper counterparts.

This hacksaw is clearly not professional, and its main advantage is its affordable price. This is the cheapest hacksaw, and all its flaws are visible to the naked eye. First of all, ergonomics. Despite the inserts of a different color on the handle, as they say in the reviews, they have no practical value. They are also made of plastic. In addition, there is no one-piece construction used here. The handle is attached to the frame separately, which significantly reduces its service life.

It is worth noting that this is not the worst brand in front of us, and there are a lot of interesting tools in its line, including hacksaws.But this is definitely the cheapest option, and the most simplified. You should buy such a hacksaw only if you do not plan to load it. She will cope with small jobs, and therefore her money is worth it.

The Russian company Zubr has been successfully competing with world manufacturers for a long time, and we have a vivid example of the fact that a hacksaw with the best characteristics can also be inexpensive. The advantages are evident at first glance at this tool. There are huge rubber inserts in the grip areas of both hands. There is even a small pocket for storing small parts, and the tensioner is located at the bottom and does not interfere with work.

Cutting blades are also used from this brand. They are made with hardened teeth and three-sided sharpening, which is why they are quite expensive compared to conventional saws. But the price here is fully justified, especially if you need to cut metal for a long time, and the load on the blade will be maximum.

A simple hand-held hacksaw that lacks stars from the sky, but does the job perfectly. The main advantage here is the price, the best on the market, but it is also necessary to emphasize the integrity of the structure. The bed is not just attached to the handle, but passes through it. That is, the handle here is made in the form of overlays, which significantly strengthens the product and makes it as durable as possible.

Also, this manufacturer does not indicate the need to use paintings of this particular brand. In fact, we have just an inexpensive metal saw holder. Among the shortcomings here is the low level of ergonomics. There are no rubber inserts and other elements on the handle that improve the grip. However, for such money to demand more from the manufacturer does not make sense.

Sawing metal with a hand tool is a complex process, and manufacturers are constantly experimenting with different materials and technologies to make it as easy as possible. This Chinese brand uses bimetal in the manufacture of its cutting blades. This is a special alloy of two elements of different density. It can only be hardened in a certain place, and in this case it is the teeth.

Thanks to hardening, the canvas does not dull longer, and it is soft and does not break when biting. It is also necessary to mention the ergonomics of the product. In place of the grip here are rubber inserts, and on both sides, which is very convenient for long-term work. The web tensioner is hidden in the frame body. This factor does not affect the performance in any way, but it looks very aesthetically pleasing.

The German brand Gross produces the best hand tools, in the manufacture of which absolutely all factors are taken into account, from quality and reliability to ergonomics and convenience.Before us is the highest quality hacksaw, but its performance is ensured only if the original cutting blades from this manufacturer are used.

The whole structure is quite expensive, but in this case the price is fully justified, since working with such a tool is as simple and convenient as possible. The manufacturer managed to harden the teeth and sharpen them three-sided, which led to a significant increase in cost, but if you need to saw something for a long time, then this is the best option, and it makes sense to pay such an amount to make your work easier.

In everyday life, situations often arise when it is necessary to saw off a small part or to do it where a conventional saw simply does not reach. In such a situation, this product, which has a blade only 150 millimeters long, will help. This is the most compact saw for wood, and judging by the description, it is also the best in terms of technical characteristics.

There are hardened teeth and three-sided sharpening.The canvas is bimetallic and with a high margin of safety, and all this pleasure costs less than 400 rubles. True, if you look at the reviews, it becomes clear that the manufacturer slightly overestimated some of the characteristics, and even with the naked eye you can see that the sharpening, although made from three sides, is of poor quality and uneven. However, this is not a professional saw, and it will cope with small work without difficulty, so it’s still worth buying it for your home. This purchase will not cause a strong blow to the budget.

A hacksaw for wood is needed not only at home. On a hike, it also often comes in handy, and it’s inconvenient to carry a full-fledged saw with you, and it doesn’t make sense. Since there is this model, the main feature of which is the folding form factor. Outwardly, it resembles a penknife, but unlike it, there is not a blade here, but a saw blade. A convenient thing, but as they say in the reviews, it does not live up to expectations.

Teeth sharpening is double-sided, and no hardening. The paint quickly peels off the canvas, and the plastic from which the handle is made is unpleasant to the touch. Of course, ergonomics are not the main thing here, but such a popular brand could pay more attention to it. But the hacksaw is very cheap, and this is its main advantage. True, if you often go out into nature, buy several pieces at once.

There is a special type of hacksaw called Japanese. It is not known why exactly Japanese, and what relation they have to this country, but they are united by a special form of construction.First of all, here is a square canvas. Approximately the same is used when working on a miter box or when cutting a laminate at the time of laying. There is also a movable handle that can be fixed at a convenient angle of inclination.

Along the edges of the canvas there are special bumpers that do not allow the canvas to slide off the workpiece and not damage it. Ideal when sawing on a miter box that gives direction to the saw. And a small and frequent tooth even allows you to saw a laminate or MDF sheet, avoiding chips and marriage, which are very common when working with conventional saws.

If it becomes necessary to cut a branch from a tree, the main problem arises - to get to this branch. In addition, the canvas constantly jumps off and, being in an uncomfortable position, the process becomes much more complicated. But, there is a way out, and it is in front of us. This is a special hacksaw for wood, on both sides of which there are bends designed to hold the blade and prevent it from slipping. Cutting a regular board with such a tool will not work.

But even this is not the main advantage. Plus, this hacksaw is in a telescopic handle, hidden in the holder. You simply extend it to the desired length and get the opportunity to cut a branch without climbing a tree. An excellent hand saw that should be in the arsenal of every gardener. Yes, it costs a lot, but it makes your work much easier.

If this manufacturer undertakes the production of any tool, you can be one hundred percent sure of its quality and durability. Even a compact hacksaw for metal is no exception. This is a single handled hand saw. Its main purpose is to cut small items. The canvas is attached only on one side, which allows you to get into the most difficult places where the frame of an ordinary hacksaw does not let you in.

And here it should be understood that the performance of this tool is guaranteed only when using original cutting blades. It is in them that the secret of the quality of the product lies. They are made of bimetal with the use of three-sided sharpening and hardening of the teeth. The blade is strong enough and at the same time flexible, and the teeth do not dull for a long time.
