A crystal saw is an item made from a small crystal seed by invoking the singing bowl in Brimstail's cave in the Tree Gnome Stronghold. The seed is awarded to players who complete The Eyes of Glouphrie quest.
The saw adds a hidden +3 bonus to the player's Construction skill. This allows the player to construct items as if their Construction level was higher by 3, although this advantage is not applicable when constructing things that do not require a saw, such as monsters, plants, or rooms. This bonus is stackable with drinking the teas and spicy stews that already boost this skill.
However, once the saw has been used to construct 28 items, it reverts to its seed form where it will need to be re-enchanted by returning to Brimstail's cave.
Trying to conserve charges when building something the player already has the Construction level for by having a normal saw in their inventory at the same time does not work, even if the normal saw is ahead of the crystal saw in a player's inventory. Each item still takes away one charge of the crystal saw even if the player already had the level necessary to build it.
If you lose or destroy the saw, you can get it back by talking to Brimstail in his cave.
[edit] Trivia
- It was once possible to obtain multiple crystal saws when The Path of Glouphrie was released. The crystal seeds properties were the same as The Eyes of Glouphrie's crystal seed. A player could use the seed to create another crystal saw in Brimstail's cave. After the player used the seed Brimstail would give them another seed, with a conversation claiming that the player 'lost' the seed. This could be repeated multiple times. However, Jagex removed this glitch a few weeks after the quest's release.
