Best Japanese Value
Robert Larson 300 Dozuki Saw with Replaceable Blade

Best value Japanese dovetail saw. Its case rests on very sharp out of the box, cuts cleanly with minimal setup and replaceable blade keeps ongoing cost predictable and low. Keep in mind that blade is thinner and more prone to kinking if forced.
