Bone saw

Every day reminders.
Now I see my trusty bone saw is considered to be vintage.
Yep, archives indicate previous threads.
Anybody out there recommend a " m odern" version that is as sturdy as the Pac-Saw, but also has fine/ coarse cutting teeth. Flimsy plastic crap won't cut it.

Can't say its as sturdy as your pac-saw saw but I have one of these that rips right through heavy bone. Some folks are havalon haters but I think it's a good option, especially if you want to keep it in your pack.



Maybe this is the flimsy plastic crap that you want no part of.

That thing looks like it's got another 30 years to go!

It's a bomber saw, certainly done it's share. Could be a little sharper as a result.
I probably will continue to use it, ...my status symbol instead of buying an expensive collector gun every few months.

I’ve broke those I have 2 and took them and the silky to ak. The silky is still being stored in ak and I’ll be buying a new one for here.

The Sven saw and the What a Saw are both good options if you're looking for a folding bucksaw... I have an older what a saw made in the US. I think they are chinese now... they are really great buck saws. You can store multiple blades in the the saw itself and they weigh practically nothing.

For 60 years, the Sven-Saw® has been THE name in saws for camping, backpacking, hunting, and yardwork. We're celebrating our anniversary by engraving the handle with the signature of the inventor. The smaller of our two saws, the 15" model was designed at the request of hikers. It's even...

What-a-saw

I like the What a Saw for how easy it sets up. Its sturdy and has done its job for many years.
The Sven is just as good and I like mine.. I just usually find myself tossing the other in my bag in most occasions since its something I have had for a few decades.

@Hem of get that bad boy sharpened and keep going. Those saws are great. My dad has one similar called a Knap saw.

I have been using some silky nockoff from Amazon. Works good enough for what I need.

Thanks @Bambistew . You have been around the block. Appreciate the feedback.
It is a cool saw, why replace it.

This thread is timely fashioned as I am in the market for a new saw. Immediately

What i have always like about my saw is how rigid it is. Not much flex when powering through an elk leg bone.

A few recommendations, but no real explanation why such bonesaw is worth it.
Anyone care to elaborate?
Seriously, curious to hear.

Silky

Light weight, super sharp, not very expensive, pretty durable

I use the small Wyoming saw. It’s tough enough to make quick work of elk leg bones.

Have tried several, including Wyoming saw. This cheap craftsmans works just as well as a silky. I just zipped two moose apart with it lickety split! And it only weighs 7oz. Haven’t carried the Wyoming saw in years.
