How to use / When it’s useful

Quick answer: use the ring terminals as handles and pull the saw back and forth, keeping steady tension to cut branches, rope, belts or small soft-metal items. In most cases, this tool is used for shelter building, trail maintenance, emergency extrication and other outdoor tasks.

Work at a controlled pace and use gloves for better grip and protection. The saw is most useful where a lightweight, compact cutting tool is preferred over a heavier folding saw or axe.
