You've never heard of a full wrap front handle

 

I haven't what are they for?

He can still claim on your insurance even if he trips over a twig on the floor, he does'nt have to be using ant tools at all, just working.

 

Well of cause, but which is likely to be worse?, a trip or cutting yourself with a chainsaw?

 

Also your premiums are based on the risk, well mine are, so if you are the only person using saws its cheaper.

 

I don't find myself wishing he used a saw, I cut he chips, stacks, etc, works well for us. He's happy, I'm happy, no problem

They were brought out to make it easier for left handed use, the handle goes right round the saw.

 

Last time I saw one over here was 15 years ago mind, the HSE got going about that time.

15 years ago you old git!

 

Yeah I bet the HSE wouldnt be too happy at all with one of those!

 

If you did get kickback using it left handed I would imagine it would be straight towards your face

I think they are mainly fitted to saws used by the emergency services, I think it may be because they will need to use them in tight spots where they may have difficulty holding the normal handle.
