    Anyone else notice this?

    I find it kind of funny that the models for saws used in this game resemble real life Japanese saws (the teeth are angled to cut on the "pull" strokes) but the sound effects while crafting seem to suggest that the saws cut on the "push" strokes, like most other saws.

    I'm a carpenter in real life, and I just found this interesting lol.

    Hell no, I didn't notice this. I always thought it was cool how people notice little things like that.

    Noticed this the other day and it was driving me crazy! So there are saws that cut on the pull? I had no idea.

    I'd figure a saw that cuts on the pull strokes would be harder to use, but I'm no carpenter.
