Veritas carcass saws carry forward the same design principles we used to develop our innovative dovetail saws, adopting selected traits of traditional carcass saws and rendering them using innovative materials and modern manufacturing methods. They are longer and have a deeper cut depth than dovetail saws, and are similar in function to a tenon saw but scaled to smaller work. A good choice for cutting the typical joints used in cabinetry, trimming frame members to length, and cutting joints in drawer runners, dividers and stretchers (the framework or carcass of a piece), our carcass saws are available in both rip and crosscut tooth patterns. Both saws have great balance, cut easily and stay true, and the open-grip handles have been made larger than those of classic carcass saws to permit a comfortable, secure grip. Veritas starter sets are also available.
