A method for single hand operation of a hand-held band saw is provided. The band saw has a frame and a handle extending from a longitudinal edge of the frame at an acute angle and opposite an edge containing a throat for receiving the work piece, and a continuous-loop blade traversing the throat. The orientation of the handle centers the mass of the saw below the hand and positions a cutting section of the blade in a vertical plane so it will engage a work piece at a preferred angle selected by the user.
