Obviously it has been mis directed.
You must immediately send it to me, unless you feel that you particularly deserve it.
Your reasons must be detailed below...
Well, get on with it!

Western saws to Japan?! As nice as Mike's saws are (I have a few), this does strike me a incongruous.
They are nice saws nonetheless!

I still have my Japanese saws but they are set up for soft woods. The hard tropicals I have been using are too hard on them. I will still be using my Japanese saws
but I have found since getting hold of my Grandfather's saw (from Australia), I like the western saw style (which I grew up on) for certain cuts. I love how the rip panel saw cuts so fast.
By and by, getting a good set of Japanese saws was going to be more than these and I still have to replace a couple of current Japanese saws.
As with planes, I have both Japanese planes and western planes and use all with a bias to my LV planes because I have been working with tropicals harder than Jarah and the like.
I get to use tools from both worlds. But for chisels, I only have Japanese chisels.
I hope a few more saws will be coming soon.
They have been a long time coming.
