- TL;DR Summary
- The teeth dig into the wood and won't move on the push stroke.
I tried to saw a piece of wood with a hand saw. Its teeth have an unsymmetric, ratchet-like bias that allows you to pull the saw, but they dig into the wood and refuse to move when you push. (This is not about the blade sticking in the gap after cutting halfway -- I can't even cut a couple of millimeters).
Any tips to use this kind of saw? Or is it just a badly designed saw and I should get another?
