Ryoba saws have a double-edged blade – with one side for cross and end-grain cutting and the other for ripping along the grain. This makes for a very useful saw for general-purpose traditional woodwork.

They are all slightly thinner in the middle of the saw to reduce friction when cutting through thick work pieces. The tooth spacing also reduces (creating a finer cut) from the front to the back so that when small cuts are made closer to the handle, it provides a smoother finish and better control. For this reason the tooth spacing listed below is an average in the middle of the blade.
