The Japanese saw is a PULL saw, you don't push it like the other handsaw, it cuts on the pull stroke, it looks like you was trying to cut on the push. Also its for finer cuts, speed isn't its thing. its clean precise cuts. And good for trimming edges flush with a surface (Why its thin). Cant do that with the other two saws.
@@Nighterlevnot sure if you have ever used Japanese pull saw, if you use just pull. motion to cut and press on it it goes like butter but with push pull motion it just bugs
I LOVE my Japanese handsaw! I've cut everything from 2x4s to small tree limbs to 3/4" rounds. When you get the hang of it you'll be amazed how smooth and quick your cuts are. Plus, the pull will not tire your arm as quickly as a push saw. Go get one!!
Also, that type of saw usually has coarse teeth for rip cuts, and fine teeth for cross cuts. That’s why the second cut using the correct teeth went faster and was cleaner. And another thing is that you can use both arms and pull with your body centered to the saw. It’s a lot more efficient.
Maybe it was me. It was definitely me. I tried using digital measure for flooring, when they first came out. It was slightly off, and i never trusted it after that. I would remeasure 😂 with a tape.
As a carpenter by trade I only use s saws all for removal of beems , then the normal hand saw for sqareness and precise cuts whithe using a sliding bevel
I have one of those digital levels but it's for checking the angle of my saw blade on my table saw. It won't work well for long pieces like he used it for.
Plus the pull saw requires a way different technique than the American types... and they're usually used primarily for flush cutting stuff like dowels and joinery, not cutting a 2x4.
Once again, Tyler proves he is the GOAT when it comes to getting his fans and subscribers to comment!!! Tyler, you are the most intelligent 'dunce' on the internet! Kudos and Hazza!!!
When it comes to tools, you need them all. Each of the tools you tested are needed. Not all jobs can be done with one saw, tape measure, ect. Each has a purpose and a use!
The moron thinks handsaws were invented in the 1800s and uses a trim pullsaw on framing boards while trying to cut on the push as if he can't even feel when the teeth engage and when they don't. He's the dumbest person on TH-cam.
The hand saws are pull saws. Focus all your energy on the pull, not the push. Gently push all the way forward then pull back. It's crazy how fast a saw can cut when using it correctly.
Tyler is the golden retriever of product reviews. It's just impossible not to like him and you never expect him to take a straight line to get from Point A to Point B.
The cool thing about the folding ruler is they actually make them in different incriminates where they fold, for use in different trades. Notice the one he's using folds at 8". That's for carpentry framing. The ones I used in sheet metal were 12"
I love the old framin rulers because that’s literally what they’re made for. I can sit here and measure out 12345. How many ever I needed to make the frame if I gotta make 12 inch frames then I have three sections right there that I can make and then guess what I now havea frame to put on my boards around to make sure that say the inside is 12 inches that’s what they are. They’re two different types of tools.
The japanese saw is used to make level and flush joints, and not make big cuts. Like to make a dowwel flush with wood or if a joint is slightly off, this say amcorrects the minor mistakes.
Yeah he asked if anybody is doing that and I answered "yes" out loud lol. I don't even use one a lot but I'm definitely eyeballing that the bubble is centered between the lines as best as I possibly can.
The folding rules are used all the time by multiple trades. They're every bit as common as tape measures. In particular they're used all day by carpenters, brick layers, landscapers, electricians and anyone working in wet, dirty or electrified environments. A quality fiberglass one will last longer than a dozen tape measures in those situations.
Japanese pull saws are used more for like cutting flush with something else. It’s meant to flex like a fillet knife. Dovetail box joint and dowels that stick out
Smaller ones yes, but the full size ones can do anything a regular panel saw can. If only he'd be using it properly, pulling not pushing lol It also needs quite a bit of practise to cut perfectly straight with a japanese saw.
Thought this was going to be old power tools vs new power tools, like 1970's/80's corded Craftsman and Milkwaukee tools vs modern. I think the old ones have a better chance of winning that fight.
Also one other factor he should have considered was price. Today's stuff goes for hundreds of dollars, whereas you can go to yard sales and antique stores and find old power tools for ludicrously cheap. I have a dual motion strip sander that I bought for five bucks. Works like a dream.
I use the folding ruler working on powerlines in manholes. A measuring tape will get real dirty and stop working pretty fast. For the work that we use it for it is 100% faster and easier
The bottom of the door jamb to slide new flooring under. You take a scrap peice of the flooring, but it up to the door jamb, and cut the jamb using the scrap peice as a guage. We use jamb saws and oscillating/multi tools now. But this is the traditional way. And it conforms to the shape to get a tight fit@JiggyjarjardoM77
In aircraft maintenance, we need to use a digital level to get the perfect attitude set before doing certain maintenance. For example we might need the nose to be adjusted to 1degree up and latitude set to like .25 degrees.
This video is for convenience. There's a reason why the "old school tools" are still being made and being sold. Minus the bubble level, the old school tools are tradesman/craftsman tools. Such as the pull saw, it is not made for quick cuts, but precise and clean cuts. The hand drill is for precise drilling, and a means to reduce heat from speed. The carpenters folding ruler has its purposes too. Every tool has its use, some tools can be used for all applications, but there are tools made for specific uses.
The wood folding ruler has a lot of features, outside of measuring straight lines. It's still common to see carpenters carrying both measuring tapes and the folding ruler. The Japanese pull saw is a woodworking tool, mostly used for flush cutting dowels and such
I work in a shipyard that builds both nuclear powered aircraft carriers and nuclear powered submarines, and 6' stick rulers are all we use to measure with
Do you really think he would know that lol the biggest tool was holding the saw and using the Big and brace to put screws in. Never seen such abuse of tools.
Tyler, there's a great TH-cam channel out there where the guy builds an entire cabin using mostly hand tools and old techniques, from cutting down the trees straight through. One dude. It's amazing watching him work. I think those old tools have a higher learning curve, and they have to be high quality and kept sharp.
I mean, they where building houses with the old tech, and most of them still stand. You only tested on speed, and without the propper technique, you wont be faster. Also without the right tools flr the job you also start with a disadvantage. For the folding rule, use a 4 piece one. For the hand saw, use a longer saw with the right teethpatern. For the brace, use a nicer brace with the correct adapter and/or drillbit. these things will greatly improve the odds
The wooden measure stick is good for measuring angles, corners, ect. The Japanese hand saw is for cutting small items flush, ie. cutting a dowl flush to fill a hole.
For long screws with a hand drill, I think you would typically start by making a guide hole with a drill bit so the screw can seat straight and you aren't wobbling or driving at an angle
The digital level has to be calibrated to a known level surface to show a true level. You could calibrate it to show 0 degrees when standing in any degree. Digital levels are useful in for example table saws. Calibrate the level to the table to get perfect blade degree relative to the table. After calibration just put it on the blade and set the desired angle.
I mean...the power saw is for builders, the handsaw is for craftsmen and the Japanese saw is for artisans... Of right, this is Tyler we're talking about 🤣
They are new tools. Not a single one dirty. Let me go grab my bubble level lol. There’s concrete, drywall, paint.. you name it, there’s some of it on my level. Lol
The folding ruler is by far superior. Maybe it takes a bit longer to measure but it has so many applications that a tape measure doesnt have. It can be used in water without breaking in a month. Can me used to measure and draw a board or a piece of wood if you know how. I used it mainly in constrution work. The tape measure while generally longer is only good to measure long distances in my opinion. At the end of the day it comes down to preferences.
Agreed. When you meassure something, it usually means you need to draw that measurement on to something else. Good luck doing that with a flimsy measuring tape that never remains straight.
"the stick" is for measuring around the corner. when they used a lot of trimming between the floor and the walls, and if you wanna go around a pipe or a column you use the "sticks"
How do you measure round things like pipes with straight square edges that doesn't make sense and when do you ever need to measure around a corner??? Just measure to the corner then go to the other side.
@@ShWade it's an aproximation. so you can cut it shorter. the trimming usualy came in 6 meters. you cant normally get them inside and THEN cut it. u use the fold ruler to get a quick aproximation, u cut how much u need and THEN u get it inside where it will be easier to cut a few centimeters to fit it perfectly
@@LocnavLivoc it's still pointless just measure to the corner then cut the sizes you need what your talking about just sounds like extra steps for nothing.
In wooden boat building we often use the wooden ruler over the tape measure to gain more precise measurements when dealing with the odd angles and shapes in boat design.
I think the advantage for the folding ruler is the increments. If youre doing 12" 2x4s you can just toss it up there next to it quick. Count say 3 "sections" and you know instantly its 36" maybe not an advantage per say. But a preference for some sure.
I used one of those measuring sticks before.I'd say the advantage of them is when you measure height. Unlike the tape measure, it stands straight from floor to height. With a tape measure, you can't always hook on the floor and when you try to meaure it ends up bending. Other than that, a tape measure is better for most situation.
I remember as a kid, late 70s, early 80s my uncle had the measuring sticks, (that's what he called it). I also remember my mom having a 50 foot measuring tape that was in, kind of a disk. You pull it out and get your measurements, then there was a little crank on the side and you cranked the tape back in when you were done.
As an electrician we use the folding tape everyday, it makes it easy to mark the distance for outlet boxes and switch boxes, so much faster than a regular tape measure
Tape measures are metal which means they conduct electricity. I still see folding wood rulers used where there is a potential to short circuit live electrical gear.
It's hilarious watching you use a brace and bit. When I first started line work we still used a brace everytime the gas drill broke. A brace is a tool that's as good as the hands it is in. I think you even had a ratcheting brace and still made those circles. Lol
modern bits are way less sharp than the bits commonly used with a brace & bit. when the power drill first hit the market, a good hand could drill faster with the B&B.
The folding rulers are super useful for short measurements. As a kid I had one that I had cut down to about 4 feet that I used for pretty much every woodworking project I had up until I was a teenager. I didn’t really need anything beyond that.
That was painful to watch . Every carpenter, brick layer or whatever professional craftsman is crying right now. Those tools are made for different things.
The wooden rulers usually have a small metal sliding ruler built into one end. This is used to get an accurate inside measurement. A tape measure can’t do this. You’d have to bend the tape onto a corner and guess at the distance. This is why many carpenters still have the wooden ones.
Bro im a carpenter in switzerland and we all use this „measurment stick“ (the first old Item). I really like it. Is this really not a thing in America thats really crazy for me right now😅
Love the vids mate, keep up the great work. The only upside to the old tools is you are not always going to be around power to charge the batteries, so the would be zero down time for hand tools and the people using them would be extremely fit
@@OreoBambino -can be used to draw paralel lines -can also draw different angles than 90 degree (a good one also has 15/30/45/60/75 degree lines on the back of the first piece) -can be used to copy angles -can be used in free air without bending -can be used to draw straigt lines -is more precise -can be used without hooking -has a dedicated pocket that makes it not awfull to use all day -is still the prefered reason for 98% of people who actually work on a construction site due to its actual usefullness and superior features. It just can do so mutch more than "measuring stuff"
Personally I usually prefer the older tools for 2 reasons 1st there's no batteries to keep charged 2nd old tools give me a good feeling kinda like nostalgia for a time that I never lived in.
You can measure angles with the folding carpenters ruler. You can do that with a tape but a lot harder. If you know how to use these things properly in certain situations you would grab that ruler over a tape any day
When he said “it’s hard because you have to use both hands so can’t hold the screw in place” I thought “if only there was some invention designed to turn screws by hand” 😂
@@foxfire8284 I stand by my original comment. I've seen guys use a long saw (24") and cut through a 2x4 in 3 passes (full cycles of back and forth). Sorry. Not sorry. 🤷
1. each of the measuring tools is designed for different purposes - a folding rule lets you measure in places that would be awkward or difficult to measure with a tape 2. each level is designed for different uses - a digital level is designed for accuracy - a 4 foot level is also called a framing level - a bullet level is designed for spaces you can get a framing level in 3. each saw is for different purposes - a saws all is also know as a demolition saw - a cross cut saw it designed to cut across the grain of wood with no tare-out - that Japanese saw is designed for finish work 4. each drill type has there use - a brace and bit are mostly used today for repair work on old thing where it is required to keep things authentic, you would never use the bits that you use with a brace, you are using high speed bits with a brace that is why it is so hard

To be fair, we don't watch Tyler cause he does things properly
Exactly ..just because we like him do much
True. There are other guys who are better at showing how tools are supposed to work. With Tyler, we watch because we are expecting him to get hurt.

Nah Tyler, you should've put the tape measure up against them new laser "tape measures" and see how accurate they are
they not too bad i used to use a bosch laser measure for my water restoration job, i didnt need exact measurments for that tho
They are dead on suprisingly
and turn the 180 degrees, to see it they are calibrated. they should show the same value after turning them the other way arround
Maybe it was me. It was definitely me. I tried using digital measure for flooring, when they first came out. It was slightly off, and i never trusted it after that. I would remeasure 😂 with a tape.
Exactly my thoughts!
Bubble level works across gaps too so you can ensure two surfaces are level with each other
Yup, like hanging shelves.

In wooden boat building we often use the wooden ruler over the tape measure to gain more precise measurements when dealing with the odd angles and shapes in boat design.
I think the advantage for the folding ruler is the increments. If youre doing 12" 2x4s you can just toss it up there next to it quick. Count say 3 "sections" and you know instantly its 36" maybe not an advantage per say. But a preference for some sure.
I used one of those measuring sticks before.I'd say the advantage of them is when you measure height. Unlike the tape measure, it stands straight from floor to height. With a tape measure, you can't always hook on the floor and when you try to meaure it ends up bending. Other than that, a tape measure is better for most situation.
Come on tyler. The folding rule is what I use everyday In carpentry. Maybe look it up on what all it does. It will change your mind
Next comparison should be socks vs hats vs gasoline
Ohouu good one mate🤣
This style of content is exactly why he is popular....I click on his videos knowing I may not learn much, but it's entertaining to see..lol
So we use them when working with live electricity. Metal tapes aren’t great with electricity. ⚡️
I remember as a kid, late 70s, early 80s my uncle had the measuring sticks, (that's what he called it). I also remember my mom having a 50 foot measuring tape that was in, kind of a disk. You pull it out and get your measurements, then there was a little crank on the side and you cranked the tape back in when you were done.
They still make those.
@@ksavage681 with a big crank and a gear drive. and a nonmetal tape.
Those are for measuring land.
Stick ruler better for masonry work
As an electrician we use the folding tape everyday, it makes it easy to mark the distance for outlet boxes and switch boxes, so much faster than a regular tape measure
Tape measures are metal which means they conduct electricity. I still see folding wood rulers used where there is a potential to short circuit live electrical gear.
Most tape measures with have some sort of plastic coating.
And what do you think the hinges on the folding ruler are made out of?
Definitely needs a meme photo "Tyler cutting a 6x6" with him wailing it with the hammer.
Well the hand tools dont have to be recharged. If you have one battery and have to let it charge the regular hand tools will keep going .
Coming soon: “Putting random things in rock tumblers”?
oh man, the hand drill is not meant for screws.....its made for drilling holes...
Imagine if the digital level has a bubble level inside of it with a scanner
Lol! AI version of Tyler inside it.
Japenese pull saws are used for fine wood working not cutting a 2x4 lol
It's hilarious watching you use a brace and bit. When I first started line work we still used a brace everytime the gas drill broke. A brace is a tool that's as good as the hands it is in. I think you even had a ratcheting brace and still made those circles. Lol
modern bits are way less sharp than the bits commonly used with a brace & bit. when the power drill first hit the market, a good hand could drill faster with the B&B.
@@kenbrown2808I have an antique bit that's INSANELY sharp. It's like it was never used....
@@foxfire8284 because they made them to cut wood, instead of to survive being driven at 1500 RPM
Bud, if you're cutting lumber by hand, you want a Japanese whaleback saw. The japanese PULL saw is for hardwood, like fine furniture work.
Yay! Someone else thought of the whaleback saw!
The measuring stick was one of my favorite things to play with while watching my dad work. Welding striker was #1
so what you're saying is your dad spent a fortune on flint.
@@kenbrown2808lol you’d think but he always took it away. Still my favorite though.
30:25 Tyler has clearly never seen the Amish put up a house.
I thought the tape measure was going to be the old school tool and the new was going to be a laser measure.
My boss when I used to do tile always used the stick ruler it’s easy to clean thinset off and doesn’t get damaged as easily
Oh, according to these boxes looks like there's some rock-tumbling action going on 👀
The folding rulers are super useful for short measurements. As a kid I had one that I had cut down to about 4 feet that I used for pretty much every woodworking project I had up until I was a teenager. I didn’t really need anything beyond that.
The pull saw is the only kind I use anymore, hand saw anyway. They cut on the pull stroke maaking them less tiring and have a much narrower kerf
They do take practice. First tip hold them flat to the surface
The pull saw is more of an artform than a tool usage.. respect it and it will respect your cut.
Levels dont use water they use alcohol so it wont freeze
Bubble level drinking game! Everytime Tyler says Bubble level take a drink! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
That is actually a carpenters ruler.
Many workers in Sweden use a thumbstick today because it works well
The wood ruler is for working inside of hot electrical panels in commercial settings.
That was painful to watch . Every carpenter, brick layer or whatever professional craftsman is crying right now. Those tools are made for different things.
The wooden rulers usually have a small metal sliding ruler built into one end. This is used to get an accurate inside measurement. A tape measure can’t do this. You’d have to bend the tape onto a corner and guess at the distance. This is why many carpenters still have the wooden ones.
I use both tape measurer and a folding rule.Each has its use.
The Japanese saw if he would’ve used it right would been just as fast as the Milwaukee
And I’ll add alotta the old tools arnt meant for power and speed they’re made to let the tools work
Bro im a carpenter in switzerland and we all use this „measurment stick“ (the first old Item). I really like it. Is this really not a thing in America thats really crazy for me right now😅
Yup, used to work as a landscape gardener in Switzerland. Used the "stick" all the time.
Same in Germany, we also either use a laser or the stick. But most of the time it's the good old wooden stick.
I'm a carpenter in America for 25 years and never used a measuring stick.... you're silly like putty ...
The measuring stick is used in earth moving/earth grading/land surveying here in the US. I have one in my truck as I type this message.
#2 The japansaw is not used for fast sawing, it is needed to make connections that need to be precise, for example
Love the vids mate, keep up the great work.
The only upside to the old tools is you are not always going to be around power to charge the batteries, so the would be zero down time for hand tools and the people using them would be extremely fit
In Sweden many carpenters still use the folding rule, donno why tho.
Traditional
idiots
@@OreoBambino
-can be used to draw paralel lines
-can also draw different angles than 90 degree (a good one also has 15/30/45/60/75 degree lines on the back of the first piece)
-can be used to copy angles
-can be used in free air without bending
-can be used to draw straigt lines
-is more precise
-can be used without hooking
-has a dedicated pocket that makes it not awfull to use all day
-is still the prefered reason for 98% of people who actually work on a construction site due to its actual usefullness and superior features. It just can do so mutch more than "measuring stuff"
Personally I usually prefer the older tools for 2 reasons 1st there's no batteries to keep charged 2nd old tools give me a good feeling kinda like nostalgia for a time that I never lived in.
Do you notice how clean his new studio is compared to that garage he used to be in
Yeah, that's a problem. 😂 I miss the old garage.
@@zaccwalker3098 bro, he never cleaned up. He has spaghetti on the wall.On those papers behind him for like a year and a half
You can measure angles with the folding carpenters ruler. You can do that with a tape but a lot harder. If you know how to use these things properly in certain situations you would grab that ruler over a tape any day
Iv never seen anyone use a hand drill to install a screw. Didnt even know that was a thing. Isnt that what a screw driver is for lol
Well...the brace gives you a lot of torque and they did have bits that could turn screws.
When he said “it’s hard because you have to use both hands so can’t hold the screw in place” I thought “if only there was some invention designed to turn screws by hand” 😂
When I need an expert I come to Tyler’s comment section 😁
You would think he woulda used the laser tape to a regular Stanley
the hand drill is still used to put up the wire fence in farms, the drill will stop working in like 10 poles with that bit
its all about the stroke when hand sawing, lol stroke it dont poke it, lol
Get someone who knows how to work a handsaw correctly and I guarantee they'll beat the Milwaukee.
That’s optimistic. They are not competing tools, entirely different functions
@@Gapines23 They're both made to cut, are they not?
@@Carl_Jryes they are. But one has a very fast moving blade where as the other isn't. The sawzaw is like is the flash of saws.
@@foxfire8284 I stand by my original comment. I've seen guys use a long saw (24") and cut through a 2x4 in 3 passes (full cycles of back and forth). Sorry. Not sorry. 🤷
1. each of the measuring tools is designed for different purposes
- a folding rule lets you measure in places that would be awkward or difficult to measure with a tape
2. each level is designed for different uses
- a digital level is designed for accuracy
- a 4 foot level is also called a framing level
- a bullet level is designed for spaces you can get a framing level in
3. each saw is for different purposes
- a saws all is also know as a demolition saw
- a cross cut saw it designed to cut across the grain of wood with no tare-out
- that Japanese saw is designed for finish work
4. each drill type has there use
- a brace and bit are mostly used today for repair work on old thing where it is required to keep things authentic, you would never use the bits that you use with a brace, you are using high speed bits with a brace that is why it is so hard
You need to do more research because you have no clue how to use the tools so how can you give your review
That's the whole point, he's playing a character and engagement goes 📈 with all the comments.
Tyler's clearly not a tradesman xD I have multiple different types of the same tool. All fill a purpose whether niche or otherwise.
