Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The ARS turbocut folding straight tooth saw features a 6-1/2-inch curved blade, and a rubber padded handle for added comfort. Unlike conventional saw teeth which are filed and alternately bent, the ARS blade is taper ground, and each tooth is honed to a precise knife-edge sharpness. The unit's incredibly sharp patented blade will produce remarkably clean cuts every time, and is made from hard chrome-plated steel for extra toughness and rust resistance. The blade folds into the handle for easy and safe storage.

5.0 out of 5 stars Super slick, super fast. More than a mere pruning saw., August 9, 2008

This review is from: ARS Pruning Folding Turbocut Saw with 6-1/2-Inch Curved Blade SA-GR17 (Lawn & Patio)

Have to admit that this seemed like a high price for a pruning saw, but once I saw how fast it cuts and how totally smooth (= fast healing) the cuts were, I decided it's worth every penny. The curved blade makes it much easier to cut one limb without sawing off part of another at the same time. A marvelous tool. Oh, and when I needed to trim a 2 by 4 to length in a hurry last week, it took care of that job very nicely as well.

At Home Depot, I bought a Fiskar's folding saw that is a similar price and size. This Japanese-made ARS saw is much better. I also have an electric chain saw, but it is almost always easier and simpler to use this handsaw.

I do a lot of trimming on our property & this little saw works great. The handle is comfortable with smaller hands & I like the fact that it folds up, as this saw is very sharp. This was a good buy!
