Reply To: Veritas vs Lie Nielsen dovetail saw

I’m a long time woodworker and own both Veritas and Lie Nielsen saws. I find the quality of the value of the Veritas far exceeds the difference in cost. The LN is prettier but the Veritas performs extremely well. Having said that, if you’re new to woodworking, give careful consideration to japanese saws. You may find cutting on the pull stroke, especially when trying to be accurate at the beginning of the cut, easier with a japanese saw.
