A Metal Saw is the metal equivalent of the Bonesaw. One is required to cut a log into boards. With a metal saw, you get 25% more boards per log than you get with a bonesaw.

## How to Acquire

You need a smithy's hammer equipped and have right-clicked an anvil.

## Quality

• Metal Saw Quality = ${\displaystyle {\frac {{\frac {_{q}Metal+_{q}Bough}{2}}*9+{_{q}Anvil*4+_{q}Smithy'sHammer}*3}{16}}}$ and is softcapped by ${\displaystyle {\sqrt[{2}]{Strength*Smithing}}}$.

## Tips

• At start when quantity is not an issue and quality is, you want to use the best-quality saw you can get. Bonesaws are a lot easier to get at higher qualities than metal saws. This is due the fact that bonesaws are based off of the Survival skill and Bone Material quality; the metal saw involves metal quality and the Smithing skill. It's fairly easy to get a 150+ quality bonesaw, but metal is much more difficult to improve at fresh world.
