SE Port. Camping Hand Chain Saw, Cloth Strap Handles for Saw

by Unknown

Product Features

• It's 30" long OA, with (82) spring-steel teeth on the 18-1/2" middle section, and canvas loop handles on each end.
• Imagine a cross between a sharpened bike chain and a garotte.
• It's easy to use (we tested it), works a whole lot faster than a hatchet, rolls up into no space at all, and stores in the heavy-duty canvas belt pouch that comes with it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Fucntional but not durable., March 22, 2011

The saw is made in China.

There are 86 cutting teeth ,and the teeth thickness is only 0.04 inches (using a caliper to measure).
The cutting portion of the saw is about 18.5 inches in length.
The description states the metal is of "spring steel", which it is not. It seem to be made of a softer steel of unknown type.
The saw became dull after cutting 4 braches about 1 1/2 inch thick. Average cutting time to cut through a 1 1/2 inch branch is about 2 1/2 minutes when the saw is sharp, and cutting time increased to 3 1/2 minutes with the saw dull.
The size of the handle straps are small and tight fitting on larger hands. The straps are showing wear after using the saw six times.
The pouch is made of nylon with a vinyl lining inside and button snap to keep flap close. The button snap does not hold tight and the flap opens easily.
Overall this product works but may not last very long.

This saw works like magic on small branches but don't try and use it on larger trees; its not ment for them and you'll break them

3.0 out of 5 stars Great addition to my survival kit., March 23, 2011

It's a little lighter than I thought it would be but it seems to work well enough for everyday carry and it keeps your pack light if you're using it for a survival kit. They must have made some changes according to another review because the pouch seems large enough and has a protective coating on the inside. Mine didn't come that sharp and I'll have to sharpen it myself. I tried it out on a limb and it cut right through without any problems.
