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

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.

which versions?
-

How many of you make it a point to do recreational climbing. in the 10 years ive been climbing ive only rec climbed a couple times.....comps not included. its a lot of fun being able to do big swings and quick branch runs without any extra gearing weighing you down.

i got mine on ebay for £80 do your homework if you buy one on ebay though....theres people advertising 250mh models for £10, thats bollocks. the price SHOULD give it away if they are exagerating the strength.
-
who is using these? I bought mine a few weeks back after seeing some in action. its already proved invaluble for pointing things out to customers that you'd otherwise spend forever trying to explain. and also they're dammed good fun! few pics, one reflected off my truck, one just shooting into the sky, and the one last one is reflecting off a tree approx 400 meters away. this ones a 100mh model

i was reading an interesting thread at www.treebuzz.com that discussed using srt to gain a higher anchor point where the anchor point was questionable. run the srt line through a sling at a safe point on the trunk so if the highest anchor point fails you'll only fall to the next safety, much like lead climbing with quickdraws i suppose, or at least this is how i understood it. meanwhile you're working Ddrt off of the srt.

-
