I'm talking about the old-fashioned handtool.

Generally, the longer the saw, the larger the teeth and the wider the space between teeth. Knowing tooth spacing helps the sawyer select the proper length of saw. Larger crosscut saws, with more space between the teeth, work poorly on small branches. Likewise, a small saw with small, closely spaced teeth doesn't work well on large trees or logs. There are six patterns: the plain tooth, the M tooth, the Great American tooth, the champion tooth, the perforated lance tooth, and the lance tooth. Generally they can average 3 teeth per inch that cut both on the push and the pull stroke, whereas the lance pattern generally has 4 teeth per inch for a better cut for softer wood. The teeth are wider spaced, with the opening between called a gullet, which would collect the wood shavings, making for a quicker and smoother cut, not getting bound up

i've got a couple in the garage about to go on the wall, they're from 2-5 and the dbl toothed ones are 2.
I've got about 20 saws and they differ with length.
