Brand Story By

Review: Also great for gardening and sawing through roots right in the dirt... - I don't remember exactly what project I bought this saw for, but i've been using it quite a bit in my back yard! The teeth are great and it saws quickly. I have been trying to plant a lot lately and i have too many roots in my back yard from the previous owner. I just stick this saw in the ground (of course knowing there aren't any pipes in the area!) and saw on through the pesky roots...I have used this saw more than my other hand saws for other odd projects as well. Comfortable and a great tool - even after using this saw on ALL KINDS of stuff, teeth are still running strong...
Review: Best Weeder Ever!! - I am battling acres of mustard, and thistles. This is the best tool I have found to uproot them. Jab the knife-sharp slender point alongside the roots, push, and twist, and out pops the whole thing. The blade has the right balance of strength and flexibility, and very 'grabby' saw-teeth, to uproot some very stubborn weeds. Comfortable grip, with a big enough handle to lean into. Mine is holding up very well after a couple months of grubbing in the gravel. I just bought a second one for backup

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cuts soo good!
*by J***. on February 28, 2013*

I am no pro at this kind of stuff, but after reading online on how to install a low voltage bracket, they recommended using a dry wall saw, and WOW it made my work so much easier. This thing cut through the dry wall with ease, it seemed to even keep a straight line on its own. I had some trouble with one side of my wall, there was a double slab of dry wall but one seemed to be like concrete, maybe because of how old it was? Either way this tool cut through it with little effort. The grip is nice, the blades are sharp and the pointed tip did help to make the first incision. I can't compare this saw to any other, but for me it did what it needed to do perfectly.
