Works for high limbs and tricky jobs; but expect a few frustrations and struggles when cutting high limbs or two person sawing
This is a comparative review of the Chainmate 24 inch survival pocket saw and The FiveJoy 18 inch double sided pocket chainsaw. I was not paid for this review.The situation:We recently wanted to cut down two high limbs from trees on our property. These limbs were 20-45 feet up, very high for some inexperienced tree cutters. We duct taped together some poles, used a gardening claw as a hook and grip at the end, tossed over a tennis ball with rope attached, and reeled over our rope line. Once we got a rope around we attached both ends to the chain blades and began alternating pulls on either side (a two person job). One three inch diameter log went down from 20 feet very fast with the chainmate. After a longer and more difficult cut with a higher and larger 5 inch limb we decided to get the double sided FiveJoy saw. However, the FiveJoy saw is a joke in comparison.Comparative Specs and Review:The Chainmate is near as thick as a chainsaw blade (which if broken from a loop would work as well). However, because it is one sided it is difficult to work limbs from high up - you take a 50% chance of the blade spinning and ending up on the dull side only flossing the tree. Also, when the limb cracks from high it will pinch the blade and you'll likely need to tie the tree up and twist it till it comes down. All in all, the Chainmate will do an expensive high limb trim job for less, but it will require two people, some muscle, a rope, a bit of ingenuity and some time.Chainmate: 4 stars.The FiveJoy is laughable, looks like a children's necklace. Though the teeth feel sharp, and the double sided idea is smart, the chain is so thin that it cannot take any sort of pulling from a distance. In other words, unless you're standing over the branch and cutting small 3 inch limbs it will not work for your purposes. In these instances, I'd reckon a jack knife saw blade would be near as effective.FiveJoy: 1 star.Chainmate CM-24SSP 24-Inch Survival Pocket Chain Saw With Pouch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0026OOS60/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_api_X38HxbAHM6BZ0FiveJoy Pocket Chainsaw (18" Long) - Double Side Teeth Rope Saw - For Camping Hiking Backpacking Hunting - Comes in a Pouch with Belt Loop - Must-Have Outdoor Survival Kit https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017JQ4ANK/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_api_S48HxbWTFDBE8Photographed:Left is the Chainmate,Right is the FiveJoy,Key included for scale at center.
