this is the saw i use http://www.bamboocraft.net/workshop/showphoto.php?photo=1253
the kerf is only 0.88 mil so spliting a normal pencil (scribe) line is dead easy
used at a very low cut angle (i would guess i cut at 15 degrees) combined with the 14 tpi means there is no tear out
i rarely need to use a block plane to improve the fit
clearly if the scribe line is against brick or stonework you have to use a jig saw
