Ooh!  I love the little band of colouring around the base of the handle.

Love my Badaxe saws, too!

I want somebody to make that with a thin pull blade [cool] I like a proper handle on my saws.

Very Nice, great saws, I don't have any Badaxe saws yet, but in July I will. I splurged and will be going to Sawlapalooza.

I have seen arguments for both types of saws.  The Western, push-cut saws, expel sawdust on the back of the cut, allowing the sawyer to see the layout line without constantly blowing the dust off.  Japanese pull-cut saws expel the dust on the front, potentially obscuring the layout line.

I think there is a place for both types in the shop, depending on how thin the tails you need to cut are.  The heavier Western saws are much easier to resharpen.  I have never attempted to resharpen a Japanese saw as the teeth are so fine and close together.
