A very handy saw. It's a convenient size, sturdily made, and comes with both a general-purpose blade (suitable for wood) and a hacksaw blade. I recently used it to cut up a small fallen tree, and it made for quick work despite the short blade/5.

Sawing branches with a hacksaw slices timber similar to slicing butter - not that easily of course. But using a hacksaw to saw off branches is quieter, and gives a cleaner cut for the branch. You could even cut tree branches in cramped treeclear.barted Reading Time: 5 mins.

As long as there's ample room for a hacksaw moving to and fro, a hacksaw would be the tool of choice for me.

Mar 27, The first thing to do is to cut a triangular wedge going through 40 percent of the trunk in the direction you want the tree to fall by using steady strokes.

Next you will use the handsaw to cut a horizontal back cut on the opposite side just a few centimeters above the first one. Do not lean against the tree when cutting the trunk and make sure.
