Introducing the Bad Axe 12" Stiletto Dovetail Saw, a revolutionary tool tailored for serious dovetailing tasks. Crafted with precision, this saw is engineered to provide unparalleled accuracy, potentially making it the only dovetail saw you'll ever need.


Featuring an extended two-inch throw, the Stiletto offers increased reach and flexibility. Its lightweight design and perfect balance ensure optimal control, guaranteeing precise cuts with every stroke. The saw's results-driven action delivers clean and accurate results that surpass expectations.


Prepare to be impressed by the advantages of a longer toothline paired with a lighter, elongated saw. This powerful combination enhances accuracy, reducing the risk of deviation. Feel the unique biofeedback as the Stiletto's hammer-set toothline effortlessly bites into the wood, providing a tactile sensation akin to a serrated razor.


Versatility is the Stiletto's forte. It effortlessly handles gang-cutting dovetails up to 8/4 combined thickness, crafting sliding dovetails, and achieving precise cuts with minimal strokes, even on 3/4 stock. Additionally, it excels at ripping smaller tenon cheeks in thin stock. This highly efficient tool enhances both accuracy and productivity, streamlining your woodworking projects.


In essence, we've designed a 12" long, open-handled dovetail saw with a thin (.018) plate and just enough clearance below the back to facilitate longer, more precise cuts with fewer strokes, promoting efficiency and accuracy akin to long rifle precision.


Drawing inspiration from the symbolic fighting knife of Special Operations Forces worldwide, such as the WWII-era V-42 adopted by the joint US/Canadian 1st Special Service Force, aka 'The Devils Brigade,' the Stiletto embodies the same principles of precision and purpose. Just as the V-42 was renowned for its ability to penetrate the toughest barriers with ease, the Stiletto Dovetail Saw melds comfort, confidence, and effectiveness, ensuring it becomes an indispensable tool in your woodworking arsenal
