Tim:
As for the saw:
1. I love the very thin and accurate cut.
2. I do not love that the blade bends sometimes in a way that the wood just wants it to go.
I’m on the fence about the saw. I have a larger dovetail back saw that I got from a cabinetmaker friend that refurbishes old tools. It’s very sharp and its blade is much firmer. But, I don’t have a groove or mojo yet when cutting aside pencil, now marking knife marks. Basically, I haven’t settled on “my” dovetail process. I’ve done several play joints and three table drawers. I just haven’t found that spot yet. The Zona saw does the job with accuracy.
