Hi. I occasionally use a handsaw for small tasks where it's not worth the trouble to get out the power tools.
The inexpensive handsaws I find at Home Depot (~ $15.) are wonderfully sharp and work well for this. But they're dull after only about a year of occasional use.
These handsaws are so inexpensive that it's easier to just replace them than get them sharpened, but I hate tossing the old ones.
MY QUESTION FOR YOU FOLKS: If I buy an expensive handsaw, does that mean it will stay sharp longer? Or does the money go to pay for other improvements in the saw?
Thank you very much.
