Does it need to be packable?

I know you don't have MEC there, but maybe you can find somebody carry this. Replacement blade is 8 bucks, and everything folds into the large tube.

For me it is the classic Sven saw. They have a 15" and a 21" model.

Man, that SporK guy has all the cool camping gear :)
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

I didn't think they were common on your island...it's pretty common in the US.

This is the website - Swensaw

REI has the 15" - LINK

Yep, I've got one :) and they are great, but no good for making up rounds, or neatly triming tree's :-\

I agree with you there! The Sawvivor is the best backpacking saw I've come across...  :salute:
