This is one of those those tools that I would say is a lifetime tool for someone who uses it right. It's well built and my goodness is it nice and sharp! I used to to clean up some limbs after an ice storm wrecked my yard, and it sure worked great. The shape of the handle allows you to get a good strong pull on it, and those teeth really bite in. Afterward I cleaned it (carefully!) and put some tsubaki oil on it, and expect it will be as good as new next time it's needed. If Something were to happen to it or I manage to wear it out or try to cut through rebar or something, I would definitely buy one again, but again, if you take basic care with it, it will last for years of good cutting.

Ignore any reviews of this saw questioning it's ability to cut wood.I craft with bamboo daily, sold over 1500 artisan bamboo products on Etsy. I can asuure you, bamboo is not wood, and cutting it is not the same. Here in America we all grew up attending wood shop in school building our housesfrom timber. We understand tree wood. Bamboo however is hollow, with a different cellular structure and completely different grain than timber. Plus it has a thin outer skin which tends to fray if not cut with care.This saw is my new favorite for cutting bamboo, and I've tried a bunch. It cuts easy and clean without much effort. I use it for both cured and fresh cut, multiple bamboo species, and it deliers nice cuts across the board.Don't be surprised if your bamboo saw dosn't cut tree branches as good as you'd hoped. However, If you plan to use your bamboo saw to cut bamboo, well then you'll find it works very well. The protective shell is all gravy-

I tried to make my own bamboo deer scarer water feature. This saw was easy to use and pretty sharp. But the fountain didn't tip correctly - the balance was off - so I ended up buying one from Amazon. In the end, it was a good saw for my DIY attempt.

I bought this saw for plastics to cut a 2mm acrylic sheet to fit a painting frame. The good news: it does cut acrylic, much faster than the acrylic cutters I've bought that basically score lines in it, but never deep enough, no matter how many passes, to snap the waste piece off. The bad news: acrylic pieces snap off after about 1.5" of cutting, mostly to the "outside" (towards the waste piece), but sometimes to the "inside," resulting in some very craggy edges and fault lines running towards the painting. The resulting uneven edge required some rough sanding just to smooth the sharp points that might hurt someone. The craggy edges were small enough to hide under the frame, but a couple of the fault lines still show over the painting. Lots of work for a very sloppy looking result.To be fair, this tool like any other requires training to use properly. Tips:--Hold saw at a 45 degree angle to the surface being cut.--Use a light touch.--Pull down and backwards (from the bottom), not up and backwards (from the top). (I watched a "how to" video to learn this one.)Maybe a more experienced person would know how to cut thin acrylic sheets with this saw without creating uncontrolled crags and fault lines. Room for another "how to" video!

At last, a saw designed for the job. Only the Japanese could come up with a blade that makes the annual thinning of my ever increasing black bamboo so quick and EASY. I only went out to test it and within half an hour the job was done. The tiny teeth, so different from a classic pruning saw, cut cleanly through each cane in three cuts without leaving a ragged edge. I am genuinely impressed. Love a tool that's made for a specific task.

As someone with a nightmare back yard for bamboo (now hopefully tamed for a while), I loved having this there to cut through the thicker stalks. It cut both the wet and dry fairly quickly, and didn't take much force to use.

想像以上に切れました。25cm幹は手こずりましたが、数cmの枝はスパスパ切れます。持ち手が握りやすいので力が入ります。また、替刃式なので切れにくくなったら交換すれば良いです。

It’s so easy to cut through a 1.5 -2 inch bamboo! I may want to get more job specific blades from them. It’s amazing what the right tool can do!

Article très efficace pour couper des bambous. Mais la lame s'use très rapidement. Comment s'en procurer une autre ?

Needing to thin out the interior of a small bamboo grove, I found my lopper restricted to the margins. My normal pruning saw tended to jam on green bamboo due to its coarse teeth. Accordingly, I bought this bamboo saw with the option to purchase replaceable blades: bamboo is tough! It works fine.
