Handy and Hardy September 1, 2007 zivi browning (london) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
You`d be suprised at just how useful this little tool actually is. I have a similar one which has been left out in the garden for years now and is still going strong. I have bought similar stuff from amazon before so I can fully say that you should buy this tool from here. Its cobby blade style certainly helps it maintain an edge aven under the toughest of circumstanses. Whenever you need to chop, lop or cut something, this is the tool. the only drawback [which is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5] is that the hinge can get a bit rusty and stiff after alot of weathering, so do try and take care of it despite what I said. So if you have any kind of garden, this is the tool for you!
Best folding saw February 27, 2007 Jim Wolf (London/England) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
After buying a cheap Faithfull folding saw (cheap in quality, not in price if I am honest) and breaking it after cutting about 5 bits of wood in the great outdoors, (it was sharp but the blade just snapped, not very impressive) I decided to buy the saw that Ray Mears himself uses- the Bahco Laplander. Bahco is one of the best tool makes there is, it is Swedish and their build quality and comfort of use is second to none in my oppinion. So I bought my Laplander, it is brilliant, very sharp, top notch quality, attractive to look at and very comfortable to hold. It is also very strong, it has seen some hard use and I have yet to damage a tooth and the blade has shown no signs of getting blunt and I don't see it snapping in the near future, this saw has an idiot proof locking mechanism also. One thing I will say is this: Don't rely on the leather strap, due to it being leather the knot can undo itself if you have this attached to your belt, you can change the knot though so this is not a major concern.
Used on Bushcrafting Course September 26, 2006 P. Challis (Peterborough, UK) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Probably the best saw you can have with you in the wilderness. I recently went on a bushcrafting course in Midhurst, West Sussex and this saw was indispensable. Apparently Ray Mears uses them, and we learned from his instructor, so can't be far wrong. Highly recommended for any bushcrafting, gardening or even simple DIY!
THE folding saw July 4, 2006 Mr. A. J. Bayliss (Derbyshire, England) 10 out of 13 found this review helpful
What can I say? This saw is used by a famous tv survivalist and is the best I know of on the market. So for Amazon to be selling it at two thirds of the price, and with free delivery, I don't thiink you can go far wrong!
Highly Recommended June 15, 2006 Maximus 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
The Bahco Laplander saw is one of those tools that I'd recommend as useful to anyone! I use mine around the garden for pruning and light lopping, for rough cutting in DIY and also out and about as a real godsend whilst collecting firewood. An axe is the traditional tool to take wilderness camping, but this pruning saw will arguably make things even easier. In extreme emergencies it could even save your life. I've seen Ray Mears use this very saw, and for good reason - it's high quality, light, easily stowable, sharp and safe to use. Beware of inferior Far Eastern look-alikes, this is the best. Highly recommended for gardeners and explorers alike.
