That looks like a magazine rack to me.

Reader-added tags include "Ultima Online-style", "Necessary expenses", and "Accelerating increase of tools".

My first thought exactly ! A lot of surgeon's tools do come straight from the carpentry shop.

Always wondered about those Japanese saws.

Isn't the double-edged blade an accident waiting to happen?

Japanese saws cut on the pull stroke (western saws cut on the push which lets you put some weight into the cut), so the only time you should be applying any degree of force would have your hand slipping away from the blade.

And if it were dropped, I'd be applying the same rule you should with a knife: a falling knife has no handle.

IIRC the two sides normally had different sized teeth back in the day (many still do I think) one coarse and one finer for detail work. Probably quite useful back in the day when these things were made by a blacksmith, but likely less important now that basically anyone can afford multiple separate handsaws.
