Hello Dan,

 

As a fellow tree climber, I'm sure you've had situations when cutting with a handsaw with one hand, and catching the branch being cut with the other? Can sometimes be awkward, and at certain weights and angles, hard on the wrist of the branch catching hand. Particularly heavy branches close to your gripping ability's limits as a pendulum swings.

 

So what could be handier than a custom made handle with a two foot length of stout nylon cord securely attached to it, and a triggered cord termination release mechanism. This mechanism would be almost identical to a Grip Pliers release tab.

 

Simply take a wrap or two on the branch to be caught, clamp the cord's termination in the plier jaws and set, make the cut, and let the cord take the strain that used to strain your wrist?

 

Great for bucket boys too!

 

Here's my sloppy home made version Dan. Which I have no doubt whatsoever that you could greatly improve upon, and sell to old arthritic climbers!

Thumb actuated release trigger of course!
