Makedo Safe-Saw

The Makedo Safe-Saw is a child-friendly cardboard saw from the Makedo range of tools, with a steel blade that cuts boxes without sharp edges, reducing the risk of finger or paper cuts.

The Makedo Safe-Saw is a steel blade with no sharp edges to swiftly saw cardboard, not fingers. Best of all, the cut edge of the cardboard is softened to eliminate those pesky cardboard paper cuts. We don’t call it the Safe-Saw for nothing!

How to use the Safe-Saw

Reverse the tool to punch holes as a cutting guide line if needed. The graded serrations allow you to easily saw any thickness of cardboard with a forward and backwards motion.

What is Makedo?

Makedo empowers creativity and imagination, offering a hands-on way for kids and families to engage in eco-friendly, open-ended play. Our tools help develop STEM skills, foster teamwork, and turn everyday cardboard into endless fun.

The awesomeness of Makedo is that children learn by doing, creating, experimenting, failing and maybe succeeding, but that's not essential.

The creations then open the door to imaginative play where the child is the protagonist in a hackable world of their own making.

• FIND - Makedo is the most open-ended toy construction system ever because the reusable tools work with cardboard, a universally available, free and unlimited building block.

• PLAY - Makedo creations set the stage for immersive, creative and open-ended play where the child is the protagonist in a hackable world of their own making.
