Answer: Pull stroke or draw stroke saw

Explanation:

Any saw which cuts in the backward motion or return stroke is known as pull stroke or draw stroke saw.

The main difference between a pull stroke and push stroke saw is that in a push stroke saw the saw teeth are pointed away from the saw handle and in the pull or draw saw, the saw teeth are pointed towards the saw handle.

Also, the push saw blades are thicker as compared to the pull saw due to which more care should be taken of the pull saw.

The pull saw is used to cut a thing more precisely and cleanly as compared to the push stroke saw.
