Pruning saws

[Steve Bullman]

whats your saw of choice and why?

I use the zubat 330mm. ive tried ARS and samurai. the samurai blade bends too easy. the ARS is a half decent saw for the price but overall the silkys cant be beat IMO. i prefer a curved blade, makes cutting easier and the curve also helps for hooking branches.

I use the gomtaro 300mm and the Ibuki, but am having trouble finding a place for the Ibuki in everyday climbing. Good for hooking my helmet out of the toolbox of the transit, though

Used a gomtaro for years, switched to a sugoi, and would'nt go back! The little saws just feel like toys now. Definately prefer a curved blade, and they just seem to cut quicker and easier.

i had a sugoi but found it too aggressive for fine pruning

I like my Natanokko (sp?) I'm limited to a few saws though, as the curved ones do not have the option of a lefthanded scabbard.
