    Nuh.


    But most japanese saws are not able to be resharpened. If it's one that can you'll probably need to send it to Mr Japan who made it for unbluntening.
    Boring signature time again!

    Most of the japanese saws are designed to be thrown away when they get blunt. You might find someone in japan who might sharpen same but it's probably cheaper just buying a new one.

    Not surprising as Japan is one of the world's greatest throw away societies...its the reason my brother managed to furnish his flat in Tokyo by checking out the piles of nearly new household goods chucked out on the street each rubbish day.
