Suz's Dad gave me one of those a couple of years back, I keep it in with the SE4x4R stuff in the car.

I was down a Green Lane doing some reconnaissance work for Kent Police, and got to a bit where a large tree had fallen beside the road, but had pushed a load of chestnut saplings into the road. I had to cut through about 10 3 and 4 inch branches to clear the way, and this made light work of it.

Talking Not a very H&S correct video !

One slip of the saw when cutting towards your body does not seem very safety conscious.lol

Made me want one even though we have no trees - the power of advertising eh.

Hiya mate, here is a link https://www.qualitygardentools.com/c...RoCE8UQAvD_BwE, I am very impressed by this company and will definitely be using them again!! There are loads of different Silky saws, the red handled F180 that I got is a faster cutting one with less teeth, they do a finer one with a yellow handle, the ones with the curved blades are good but I got the F180 cos its light and small as it will be going in a backpack.
