I've never saw it before. vs I've never seen it before.

'I've never seen it before' is the proper English phrasing. 'Saw' is the past tense of 'see,' but in this case, 'seen' is the correct past participle form to use with the auxiliary verb 'have.' 'I've never seen it before.' is the commonly used and correct form.

I've never saw it before.

'I've never saw it before.' is incorrect. 'Saw' is the past tense of 'see,' but in this context, 'seen' is the correct past participle form to use with the auxiliary verb 'have.'

The correct phrase should be 'I've never seen it before.' when referring to something that you have not witnessed previously.
