In this British Standard

9、the specific requirements are given for four classes of hand saw, two for the use of craftsmen, one for first grade general duty, and one for general duty in the DIY environment. Annex A is normative and annex B is informative. A British Standard does not purport to include all necessary provisions

The hardness level and finish of the saw blades is specified and tests are included to verify the qualities o

12、f the complete saw. Four classes of hand saw are specified, and in each class, saws from 450 mm to 660 mm in length are available. This part of BS 3159 distinguishes between saws intended for ripping and those for cross cutting. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provis
