Using a folding saw


When I’m out and about in the woods I find myself using a folding saw on a regular basis.  It’s a great tool to carry and combined with a knife will allow you to accomplish many common bushcraft tasks.

So I thought that I’d put together a short video demonstrating how to use a folding saw safely and efficiently.

You might also want to take a look at this post on pruning cuts.

We look at using a folding saw on many of our courses, including the IOL Bushcraft Competency Certificate and  5 Day Bushcraft Course.

You can see lots of photos of participants here as well as on our Facebook page.
