Specs & Anatomy

• Manufacturer: Great Neck Saw Manufacturers (An iconic American tool brand founded in 1919).

• Type: Traditional Hand Crosscut Saw.

• Blade Length: Typically 26 inches (standard for this model line, measured from the heel to the toe).

• Tooth Geometry: 8 TPI (Teeth Per Inch) / 8 Point. This makes it an ideal middle-ground saw—aggressive enough to cut through dimensional lumber quickly, but fine enough to leave a relatively clean edge.

• Handle: High-impact, molded black composite/plastic secured with three heavy-duty rivets.

• Weight: Approximately 1.5 to 1.8 lbs (approx. 0.7–0.8 kg). It's lightweight enough to prevent early fatigue but has enough heft to let the gravity of the blade do the cutting.
