Hey @Dayz,
With the new update tools get damaged very quickly.
With a pristine saw you can only produce 12-15 planks.
Axes and Hatches also get ruined/badly damaged really quickly, within ~9 cycles of using it.
I also heard a lot of people complaining about knifes getting ruined as quickly.
I hope this is not intentional as this will make especially any base building super hard, because you would already need more than one saw to build one single fence.

I have also observed this, any activity with knives and other tools cause them to go damaged unreasonably fast. Digging worms with a kitchen knife made it go ruined after three worms (from worn). Improvised knife is more or less instantly ruined, you can use it twice or maybe three times depending on what you use it for. Axes wear stupidly fast from cutting down anything at all (trees, bushes, zeds...).
I agree with this. I don't mind wear and tear, but at this point you need multiple pristine pickaxes just to create one stone oven.
