A crystal saw is an item made from a crystal saw seed by invoking a singing bowl in either Brimstail's cave or Prifddinas. The seed is awarded to players who complete The Eyes of Glouphrie quest.

When in the inventory, the saw allows the player to build furniture up to 3 levels higher than their current Construction level. Note that this boost only works on furniture that requires both a saw and a hammer to make (STASH units, Fire Pits, and Shipbuilding included); as such, the saw cannot assist in building new rooms or planting flowers in a garden. This bonus stacks with all other visible boosts to Construction, making it possible to build items up to 8 levels higher than the player's current Construction level when used in conjunction with a +5 boost from spicy stew. However, given the erratic nature of spicy stew boosts, it is more common for players to combine it with a trimmed cup of tea for a +6 boost.

If players lose or destroy the saw, they can get it back by talking to Brimstail in his cave and selecting his first dialogue option. He will not give players a seed if they have either the seed or the saw in the bank or inventory. The saw is destroyed upon death.

The saw can be used to boost your construction level for Sailing Facilities and core boat parts, despite the latter not requiring a saw. When used to construct core boat parts the crystal saw will not lose any charges.

The saw cannot be used to get higher-level contracts in Mahogany Homes.

Degradation

The saw has 28 charges (56 if the medium Western Provinces Diary has been completed). One charge is used each time the player constructs a piece of furniture while using the saw's invisible boost; thus, players using the saw to build furniture that they already have the base level to build will not consume charges. Charges are not consumed when building STASH units beyond the player's level.

Once the saw runs out of charges, it reverts to its seed form and will need to be re-enchanted by returning to Brimstail's cave. The player can also re-enchant the seed at the singing bowl in Prifddinas.
