The handle can also be fitted to the top of the blade to help you push the blade if using alone. The teeth are a Great American style tooth which means each tooth cuts the wood and clears the shavings. The gullets to enable the waste wood to be cleared whilst cutting.

Maintenance: The large triangular file as seen on the sharpening page section is used for sharpening these items. Saw setting pliers are not appropriate for saws with teeth of this size. Sizing advice: we recommend a saw length that is double the size of wood you are wanting to cut i.e., if you log has 2ft diameter, you’d need a 4ft saw. This is to ensure that you can get enough stroke in your cutting.
