This is a comparison of (1) the Crown 10" Gents saw and (2) the Two Cherries 10" Brass Back Dovetail saw, both around $25. In particular this compares the unboxing experience, not the actual use of them. See photos.Both share these features in common: - Wooden handle - Blade length is 10". - Spine is folded brass. Crown: - Has an outer protective bubble wrap the full length. - Packaged in a vinyl sleeve. - Handle is a bulbous and easier to grip. - Handle length is 4.75" - Handle angle is straight with the blade (not twisted to left nor right). But the handle is not straight in line with the blade when held perpendicular in the cutting position. See in the photo that the handle angles upwards when in hand. - Spine is slightly bowed sideways but probably easy to straighten. - Blade has a slight bend, likely due to manufacturing. Expecting it can be easily straightened. - Blade does not have any sort of reusable protective cover. - Blade height is 1 5/8". - 17 or 18 teeth per inch (advertised at 17). - Teeth are all set properly. - Rip cut. - Very thin kerf (roughly half the thickness of Two Cherries). - No hole in the blade to hang on a hook. Two Cherries: - Packaged as a product from the Robert Larson Company. - Packaged with no outer protection in a flimsy vinyl sleeve. - Handle not bulbous. - Handle length is 4". - Handle angle is straight with the blade (not twisted to left nor right). Handle is straight in line with the blade when held perpendicular. - Spine is dead straight. - Blade has a reusable thin plastic cover. - Blade has several bends, in a slight "S" curve, likely from the manufacturing. Not expecting it can be easily straightened. - Blade height is 1 13/16". - 14 or 15 teeth per inch (advertised at 15). - Cross cut. - Thick kerf (roughly twice the thickness of Crown). - At least 2 teeth are bent and will need to be re-set. - Has a hole in the blade to hang on a hook. Verdict:Tie; both suffer in different ways and both have slight advantages. I wished the pros of each saw could come together into a decent $25ish saw. Returning the Two Cherries immediately. Going to give the Crown saw an opportunity to prove itself as an acceptable contender for dovetail work. Hoping this review helps you.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not as pictured. Shoddy packaging. Poor quality.
Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2022
The saw came with an unfinished handle wich is not what is shown in the ad. Also, it came simply stuck in a plastic envelope. Consequently, the blade and handle was bent.

To be clear: other than the brass back there is ZERO difference between this saw and other no-name saws sold on Amazon that sell for half the price (other than the Two Cherry's logo on the blade). Fit and finish of the saw is a joke. The unfinished handle hasn't ben sharpened. There are drips of epoxy from the back running down the blade. The tooth set and sharpening is terrible as well.

About the only thing this saw is useful for is raw materials if you plan to make a new handle. And shape and recut the teeth yourself. And even for that purpose...it's overpriced. And if you were going to put that kind of work into something...would you want to do free advertising for this company? I could forgive some of these problems for a $10 saw (which is 100% what this is) but not a $30 saw.
