Draper Venom 82194 First Fix Double Ground Handsaw (500mm)

I was looking for a saw that could handle a bit of everything — cutting up wood in the shed, trimming the odd small branch, just general DIY jobs — and this one fits the bill perfectly. It’s an Amazon Choice product and very reasonably priced, plus it came with free delivery, which made it an easy decision. It ticked all of the boxes. I’ve used it a couple of times now, and once it’s up and running it cuts through wood quickly and without any fuss. It feels capable for everyday tasks and does exactly what I need it to do. So far, I’m really happy with it and feel like it was a good choice for the price. I would recommend it for light to medium jobs around the house and garden.

Lovely saw, sharp as f$#@ , well worth price 👌

Excellent.

Awesome saw , and for the price it's even better, had a tree that needed cutting down made the job very easy

I bought this as my old saw had seen better days. I mainly use it around the house for cutting fence posts and for other odd diy jobs around the house. The saw looks well made and is plenty sharp. It cuts through things easily. Hopefully it will give many years of service but we will have to see. At the price point I think it represents good value for money. I hope you found this review helpful.

The Draper Venom VSD500 First-Fix 500mm Handsaw is a fantastic tool for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. The sharp blade makes cutting through wood a breeze, delivering clean, precise cuts every time. Whether you're tackling softwood, hardwood, or even composite materials, this saw handles it all with ease. The ergonomic handle is one of its best features, offering a comfortable grip and excellent control during use. The anti-slip design ensures you can work confidently, even in demanding conditions. I also appreciate the stylish green and black design, which makes it easy to spot in your toolkit. Overall, this handsaw combines functionality, durability, and user comfort, making it a must-have for anyone in need of a reliable cutting tool. Highly recommended!

Quality product

Hmmm. Not being an expert of the use of a saw, the difficulty I'm experiencing with this item may be operator error, however it is very hard to use. I bought it for wee odd jobs around my garden but it's a problem to use. I dunno if it's the gap between the teeth that's the problem, but it is very hard to get the saw 'going', and once into any wood its takes a monumental effort to cut. Perhaps it's just me, but previous saw units have been easier to use.
