Harbor Freight Saw

I found this guy at Harbor Freight for $6 after a 20% off coupon. I drilled out the handle to save a bit of weight—about an ounce, I think. Now it's 6 ounces. Replacing the handle entirely with something lighter could save even more, but I probably won't bother.

Those small teeth will have a problem with not dry wood. But should cut cleanly. Good for flush cuts.
