The blade is made of nickel-plated hardened steel, and the handle is plastic. 

Proper care of the saw blade will increase work efficiency and extend its lifespan. After using the saw blade, always clean it of all residues. Regularly oil it. When storing it, wrap the saw blade in anti-corrosive or newspaper.
The saw blade can be replaced with a new one if necessary. 

Japanese hand saws nokogiri are tools designed for pulling cuts, not pushing. This fundamental difference in design sets them apart from Western hand saws. Japanese saws typically have thinner blades with sharper and more precisely set teeth, allowing for cleaner and finer cuts with less effort.
Cuts made on the pull provide better control and precision, as you can guide the saw more easily with your fingertips. The saw blade also holds its plane better and remains tensioned during the cut, allowing for the use of thinner blades. Thinner blades create thinner cuts and remove less material, making cutting require less effort and easing strain on the user's hands and shoulders.
