Nice axe. I have one as well. Can't throw it and I have no use for it but its nice to look at .

Watching youtube videos it looks decent. Modern Li batteries do pretty well also judging by all of my battery tools. I think its worth a try. Odd they don't sell them in the Us.

My instinct reaction is to scoff at this one but the more I think about it, the more I like it. Sure would be nice not to have to crank a climbing saw 20 times a tree, especially on those larger Silky snagglies on the way up... Sometimes by the end of a spikeless day pulling a blakes hitch I can barely crank a saw. Not funneling exhaust in certain positions might be nice too. Question is...does it work? Would a 20-30 minute battery with a second on the charger keep up? Anyone have any experience with one of these? A review of the saw maybe? First time I have seen one.

I'll look for the guys you mentioned. I will be looking for help spring of next year. I'm just getting started and its the end of the season for me in Norway now.... I'll be heading back to Georgia in the U.S to work for the winter soon. Still try to run my tree business there in the winters.. I was planning on importing guys I work with from the US but the more I look at it the more complicated it is...... It would be much easier finding European guys who would be willing to work a few months at a time in Norway.....Finding Norwegian help is near impossible. Only option here would be to hire a newbie and train him which I'd rather not go through....So pm me if you like I'll keep your number.. I've had many guys work for me back home and every good one starts his own tree company once he knows the trade. Very small market here locally not a good idea to start cloning.

I'm new to your site. I'm an American living in Norway. I have owned a tree company in the U.S for 15 years or so...Opening my own tree service in Norway now. I have some questions regarding the Euro Tree Worker Certification and/or Euro Chainsaw Certification.. How important is this? Is it required that every man on the crew have this? From what I have seen locally there is no enforcement of the ETWC whatsoever and no apparent governing body regulating this..By this I am assuming it would be a "post accident" issue ?? I would also assume it might be a requirement on government or municipality contracts?? We have the same type of thing in the U.S with O.S.H.A. . We rarely follow O.S.H.A regulations back home unless we are working on high profile, millitary, roadside, or municipality contracts. I am hoping its the same situation in Europe. They do not have the next ETW cert. test until September of 2014 here in Norway. I have an AS/Corp. and also liability insurance so in my mind the basics are covered... Just wanted to ask your opinions on working without these certifications doing private work in Europe. Also wanted to see if you guys might be able to give me any link or info on the testing body in the U.K Hopefully there is no CE or TUV tattoo requirement.... Thanks, Allen
