agree  Antje Harder: Ist mir bei der ersten Suche entgangen ;-) - "Schlitzsäge" scheint aber sogar etwas verbreiteter zu sein. Interessante Paralleltexte dazu: http://www.feinewerkzeuge.de/G10001.htm und http://www.fine-tools.com/G10001.htm .

agree  MMUlr: beide URL sind gut, von Leuten, die sich ausschließl. damit befassen - fest steht nur, dass rip saw zu den Gestellsägen gehört: http://www.feinewerkzeuge.de/gestell.htm
