I have 4 LV back saws. 2 of them are dovetail, 1 is crosscut the other is rip.

I use them just not very often. I will reach for my old Lynx for crosscut first.

I try to use the dovetail saws for dovetails. The cut great. I don't like how they feel in my hand.

I think they are OK saws for the price. Just not what I am looking for in saws.

I just ordered Bad Axe saws. Tenon, Carcase and dovetail. I am waiting for them to arrive. Then maybe I can commend on the difference if there is one.

If you would like to try LV saws before you buy I will gladly send you mine to try as they are rarely used in my shop.

Again, not bad saws at all. Just not to my liking.
