Buy it!

Cant say enough about this! $25 for a super portable, pocket sized wood-eating machine. This is great for medium sized wood processing for wood crafters, garden pruning, camp tasks etc. saws through wood like butter and the fat handle is incredibly comfortable and gives a great purchase. Perfect backpack, toolbox, or pocket saw!

Nice little bushcraft saw

Got this for my wife, and she loves it. I think I'll be borrowing it from her for some fine cutting tasks in the woods as that's what it would be excellent for.

Nearly Perfect

I ordered this to add to my growing BugOut stash. To try it out I used it to prune some stupid tree shoots growing right next to my home. It worked even better than I thought it would. Cuts quickly and cleanly as can be expected. I love the wooden construction used. Comfortable and warm to the hand. My only bit of dis-satisfaction is twofold, the blade is extremely stiff at the hinge, causing me to occasionally use my pliers (multitool) to open the saw. And the Viroblock hangs up at a certain point. I have oiled both areas. Hopefully they will free up and be more easily useable soon. Despite these two points, I highly recommend this pocket saw for camping, bush crafting, and general pruning work. I wish I had this with me years ago when my dad would send me up the willow tree for occasional major pruning.
