Brass Back Handle Blade The tenon saw is particular useful for cutting straight lines in wood. The heavy back gives the saw its weight, which is useful when sawing the wood. The weight of the saw along with the forward sawing motion allows the saw to cut through woods relatively easily. The pupil on the right shows the proper way of holding the tenon saw. The saw has to be held in the hand carefully. The index finger must point in the direction of sawing and it also helps to support the whole saw as it moves. The wood being cut must be held in a bench hook which is clamped into the vice. ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
