Great for processing small twigs into fire wood or turning middle pieces into dovetails

It is correctly advertised as a bushcraft knife, not a saw. This knife is small and convenient to use, but it was cumbersome to use to cut 1/2" branches off a dead tree that was blocking our path. We just wanted to cut little branches, so they would not scratch the paint on the car as we drove by.

This compact pull knife is really interesting. First of all, it's not a knife at all, it's a pull saw that only cuts on the pull stroke. And with the size of it, I didn't really think that it would be useful in a bushcraft situation. However, it has made an incredible addition to my model-building kit - allowing for quick and precise cutting of thick stock and then it can be stored away safely.

I have been pleasantly surprised with this awesome little saw. What it essentially is is a 25mm razor knife with a saw blade in it. It will actually also hold 25mm snap blades, giving you a knife and saw in one package. Which makes it great for camping, backpacking, and bushcraft. It's size and design makes it much more compact and lighter than a standard folding saw, but still with a decent sized blade. It's thin blade and tooth pattern made it cut impressively smooth and incredibly fast. I was seriously surprised by how quickly it will cut through a 2 inch branch. You absolutely could use this for firewood processing for a small wood stove, while hot tent camping. It, of course, would also be great for bushcraft tasks or just pruning around your house. It's Japanese made so it is definitely very well made. It fits great in the hand and is comfortable to use with great grip. It's seriously a cool saw that I am very happy to have. If you're into camping, backpacking, or bushcraft, I highly recommend you give it a try!I checked and spare blades can be purchased at the OLFA Works website.

For what this is, and is good for, this is a pretty pricey saw. While it does cut cleanly and quickly, the "razor knife" style of blade deployment is not ideal for serious cutting work. For trimming small branches and the like it is OK, but there are other, more solid saws out there for less that do the job just as well.

I love everything about this saw. It’s durable, lightweight and cuts fast. Also. since it has a utility style, I can replace blades when needed. It is perfect for camping or for wood working. It’s comfortable in the hand and is an ideal size for small brush. It has a good grip so it’s easy to use safely. The spin wheel style pressure lock is awesome too allowing you to lock the blade in place at any length.

I have an Olfa utility blade and I love the thing. It just works so well, feels solid, and the blade is sharp, easily found and easily replaceable.That's what caught my eye with this tool - Olfa quality, but it's a little SAW!? Sure, I'll try that out.And it lives up to the Olfa name! Feels quite solid and the design is well thought out. Hopefully the blade is durable, but also easy to find and replace if need be.I think it's ideal use is probably for folks who do landscaping or gardening (pros or not). Sometimes medium-small branches are tough - you can't quite get 'em with pruning shears, yet you don't want to lug around the big heavy loppers. This is so easy to throw in your pocket (if large enough), and you'll always be at the ready!Of course... $40 is pretty expensive for a niche tool like this. BUT, you are getting a better though-out design, higher quality, (assumedly) easier to find blades, etc.If this sounds like something you would find useful, splurge and you won't be sorry!

What I like:- Simple design- Blade can be locked closedWhat I dislike:- Not good for aggressive pruning cutsI ordered this knife thinking it would be easier to stuff in my pocket when gardening than my current folding, pruning saw. However, as can be seen in the photo it isn't dramatically smaller. The good news is that it means that the blade is a very usable length. Perfect for pruning jobs around the garden, and even cleaning up small branches. However, it is still a pretty large knife to tuck in my pocket, although the design is slimmer than my folding saw so it can be carried in a front pocket and easily retrieved by the included lanyard. The blade is locked by a simple knurled wheel, as found on many craft knives. This means it is pretty easy to use, but locks securely open, closed, or anywhere in between. This means I have no worries about it opening accidentally in my pocket.My only complaint is that as a bushcraft pull knife it is very fine toothed. My folding saw has an aggressive tooth pattern designed for rapidly cutting a range of different wood types, but this knife has a fine tooth pattern that requires considerably more pulls to cut the same thickness. That said, when it does finish the job it leaves a smooth clean cut. This makes it perfect for pruning stray branches off my rose bush, but isn't what I expect from something described as a bushcraft tool which I would expect to chop branches for firewood or shelter building.If you don't mind the less aggressive cuts, and putting in a bit more arm work this is a nice little saw perfect for small fine cuts. I won't use it when pruning palm trees and thicker branches as the teeth aren't designed for it, but it's perfect for cleanly pruning harder woods and plants like my rose. A solid 4 out of 5 stars.
