Hum . . .
Maybe you should try sawing dead Australian wattle (esp A parramattensis). A very good way to damage the teeth on any steel saw. Me, I use carbide on it whenever I can.It all depends on the timber.

Apr 9, 2022 at 10:22 pm #3745808Hi David, are you still selling these saws, and if so, has anything changed (price, weight, etc)? Also, is the high vis orange extra?
Thanks!
Apr 10, 2022 at 9:09 pm #3745929I am. The weights are +/- 0.1 oz. Weight also depends on grip choice, with the lightest option being Plasti-Dip on steel, then basswood, then cork. Hi viz Blaze orange is not extra, it’s just one of many choices.
Oh, I just made one with a neoprene grip and it’s awesome. Very comfortable:
