SUMMARY
Japanese Craftsmanship. A Longer Ryoba Blade. A Saw You Can Keep.
Choose a Japanese-made Ryoba saw with a longer 270 mm blade for cuts along and across the wood grain. With roots in Miki, Japan, a town with a long metalworking tradition, the GYOKUCHO RAZORSAW Blue Hard 655 combines a carbon tool steel blade, impact-hardened teeth, and an electroless nickel-plated finish. Its wooden handle is wrapped in rattan, and the blade angle can be adjusted to suit your work in dry timber. When the cutting edge needs renewing, fit an S655 replacement blade and keep using the same handle.
No. 655 has a 270 mm blade with a 2.5 mm tooth pitch, making it the longer, coarser-toothed option among these four Blue Hard models.

ABOUT GYOKUCHO RAZORSAW
GYOKUCHO RAZORSAW brings together Japanese saw-making expertise and practical replaceable-blade design. Its roots lie in Miki, Hyogo, a town with a long metalworking tradition, where saw craftsman Masaaki Tomosada established Razorsaw Manufacturing in 1969.
The brand places quality at the heart of its work, carefully producing each blade under strict quality control. Its in-house-developed impact-hardening equipment treats blades individually to create hard, durable cutting teeth while retaining the flexibility needed in the blade. For users, replaceable blades mean a fresh cutting edge without replacing the complete saw.
