A good saw for outdoor use is absolutely indispensable. In many cases, a saw is a better tool than an axe. The advantage of choosing a saw over axes is that the saw is not only lighter but also more versatile. For precision work and constructions, a folding saw is a brilliant tool in nature. You can even split firewood with a folding saw if you know the right technique! The survival chainsaw is perfect for somewhat larger felling tasks where you are still limited by weight and volume. If you are two people, you can easily fell a tree with a larger diameter. The folding saw from Bahco, on the other hand, has the advantage of being small and compact. It takes up very little space in your luggage and can easily fit in your side pocket on either your pants or backpack. If you need a larger saw for your bushcraft, survival, and outdoor adventures, take a look at the bow saws from Bahco.
Advantages of the different types of saws:
Folding saws
The folding saw takes up very little space. You can take it anywhere, and it is generally the most versatile of all saw types. The teeth on a folding saw are quite small and therefore very suitable for precision work. None of the other saws come close! When it comes to making firewood, this type of saw is really good for producing smaller portions. However, if you are making a campfire, you will quickly be glad to have a bag of blister plasters!
Bow saw / pruning saw
Firewood production, somewhat larger felling tasks, and construction work. A good bow saw is among the favorites in nature. Besides the small folding saw, it is a very good idea to bring a bow saw. You can maintain a higher pace in producing whatever wood you want to saw. A good lavvu stove or campfire "consumes" far more firewood than you might imagine. If your intention is to enjoy the trip, bring a bow saw. A small recommendation is to combine the bow saw with a pair of good leather gloves – why? The grip on a bow saw is not designed to be comfortable for long use. Admittedly, Bahco’s bow saw grip is among the better ones... but still.
Survival saws
This type of saw, whether chain or wire, is only designed for emergency solutions. They are not primary saws but can be used as backup or for WTSHTF (When The Shit Hits The Fan) situations. What they have in common is that they take up very little space and are specifically intended as emergency saws. The chainsaw is clearly the better of the two types of survival saws. Partly because it has a sensible grip and can get around branches and trees well. It is quick to use and can even be operated by two people for the larger trees. The small wire saw is ultra-light and only suitable for extreme situations. It cannot be considered a primary saw in any way, but it is brilliant in your EDC kit.
