The blade is made from nickel-plated hardened steel, the handle from aluminum coated with a hard rubberized grip.

Proper care of the saw blade will increase work efficiency and extend its lifespan. Always clean the saw blade from all debris after use. Regularly oil it. When storing, wrap the saw blade in anti-corrosive or newspaper. The saw blade can be replaced with a new one if needed. 

Japanese hand saws nokogiri are tools designed for cutting on the pull stroke, not the push. This fundamental difference in construction distinguishes them from Western hand saws. Japanese saws usually have thinner blades with sharper and more precisely set teeth, allowing for cleaner and finer cuts with less effort.
Cutting on the pull stroke allows for better control and precision, as you can more easily guide the saw with your fingertips. The saw blade also holds flat and tensioned during the cut, enabling the use of thinner blades. Thinner blades create a narrower cut and remove less material, therefore cutting requires less effort and eases the user's hands and shoulders.
