Sawpod.

[arbsister]

Gaffer or electrical tape gets expensive when used on a daily basis. I used to use dog collars (as shown by a great ex-colleague) but they aren't very adjustable.

 

I got given a free sawpod when they first came out and thought well… that’s a lot of money for a bit of foam and Velcro… but I am a true convert. Mr D’s SawPod is a fine invention in all situations.

 

If the saw starts to fall out of the scabbard then scabbard is worn - use your tape on the handle, makes the saw fit in the scabbard like new and is cheaper than taping the saw to your leg!

 

I've even seen some people wearing it on their upper thigh - an interesting look!

Silky Zubat has a tang on the scabbard which holds the saw in much better. I was wearing out Gomtaro scabbards for fun. They are crap.

 

My 2nd generation (anti-twist buckles) Sawpod has weak velcro which is a PITA, but has been mentioned before and will surely be rectified in the 'Sawpod 3G'. Right Mr. Darbyshire?

 

Awesome bit of kit. Truly awesome.

 

Just don't wear it when nipping into the bank to pay a cheque in.....

The lovely Tony has pledged a dozen sawpods as prizes for ISA climbing comp winners… give it a go, you never know you might win one!
