The classic folding saw. Tough as old boots, locks open and shut, very sharp and hard wearing.
Most folding saw blades are made in one piece and groud thinner behind the blade. This leads to brittle blade that breaks easily. The Laplander blade and teeth are made of separate piece of steel welded together, giving sharp teeth and a tough shank and good clearance behind the teeth.
Made by Bahco in Sweden it is specifically designed for the outdoors person. Only 9 inches long in the folded position and weighing just 6 ounces, the saw is small enough and light enough to fit into any pack.
Once in use, the Laplander shows its real value as its phenomenal cutting power saws through the toughest of woods. The plastic handle provides a sure and comfortable grip and, should it prove necessary, the blade can easily be changed.
The teeth are properly set, and the blade is not ground out behind them and brittle like other folding saws we have used that break easily.
