Overview
The Gyokucho 651 is a Japanese style pull saw with a high speed steel blade and wood handle, running 9.5 inches of blade on a 23.6 inch overall length. At 185 grams it stays light for extended use.
Gyokucho builds this as a general purpose saw rather than a specialty rip or crosscut blade, matching the General name in its listing. The wood handle and thin high speed steel blade are typical of Japanese pull saws, which cut on the draw stroke rather than the push.

Performance notes
The 9.5 inch high speed steel blade cuts on the pull stroke, a design that keeps the thin blade in tension and reduces binding compared to push saws. At 185 grams and 23.6 inches overall, it stays light and long enough for two handed control on bigger cuts.
