I really like the Stanley sharptooth saws, but they do tend to bind a little in big fresh pine cuts. I hit a nail with my better saw today, so I got out a new one. Didn't have any set. Cut good for a little bit, but would bind pretty fast. I rummaged around here just now and found an old Disston saw set. I don't know how much set I put in, but it is noticeable now. I only had an old pine 6x6 here, which was outside and wet. It cut straight, and no sign of binding at all. We'll see tomorrow when I get to work and have some fresh white pine to try it on. Hopefully this will solve the problem.
