Backsaw STANLEY FATMAX Reversible Flush Cut Saw — blade 25 cm, height 55 mm, for wood

The STANLEY FATMAX Reversible Flush Cut Saw is a backsaw designed for precise trimming and flush cutting of wood. With a 25 cm blade and a 55 mm blade height, the tool delivers controlled cuts for carpentry and finishing tasks. The steel back keeps the blade rigid for straight, accurate results, while the reversible blade and handle provide access in tight spaces. The soft-grip handle supports comfortable control during repetitive trimming and detail work.

Advantages

The saw features a reversible blade mechanism operated by a spring-loaded pin, allowing cutting from either left or right position without changing tools. The reinforced steel back prevents blade bending and ensures stable kerf alignment for true cuts. A wide, precision-ground blade improves cut guidance and reduces wandering. The reversible handle and compact blade geometry increase accessibility when working close to surfaces or inside assemblies. The soft-grip handle reduces hand fatigue and enhances grip security during extended use.

Suitable for

• Trimming dowels and tenons flush with surfaces
• Carpentry finishing and joinery detail work
• Working in tight or confined spaces where a standard saw is difficult to use
• Preparing accurate, straight end cuts and fine adjustments

Key specifications

• Blade length: 25 cm
• Blade height: 55 mm
• Back material: steel for rigidity
• Blade orientation: reversible via spring-loaded pin
• Handle: reversible design with soft-grip surface

How to use

Secure the workpiece firmly to prevent movement. Release the spring-loaded pin to set the blade orientation for cutting from the preferred side, then lock the blade in place. Position the saw so the steel back guides the blade along the cut line and make controlled, steady strokes, allowing the wide blade to follow the kerf. For flush trimming, angle the handle and use short, even strokes until the protruding material is level with the surface. After use, retract or secure the blade and store the saw in a dry place to preserve blade condition.

Usage recommendations

Use safety glasses and gloves when cutting. Match the saw to the grain and density of the wood, and perform test cuts on scrap material when precise fit or finish is required.
