the Accel 240 has proven to be an extremely well built folding saw .... the handle is rubber covered metal which allows for very solid grip .... 21" open, 12" closed .... its teeth will pull chunks with each pull .... this would be a saw I'd take hiking, on walking hunts, and/or when I wanted to be a bit less conspicuous ..Wink .. most certainly not as easily or quickly as chainsaw but cutting 5" -/+ limbs for a campfire shouldn't prove to be a major chore .... its sheath should be here in another week or so

Those little saws are incredible!
My Victorinox ATP has the same type of blade on it and goes through limbs like butter.

my recent interest in these saws stems from having to park on sites where overhanging limbs can make contact with our camper .... I've learned that its often much easier to eliminate the issue than it is to get the park to send someone out to take care of it .... at such times it is really handy to be able to remove the limb as quietly and inconspicuously as is possible ..

one of our sons owns acreage where he need to cut limbs to maintain his roads .... the other takes his son truck camping up in the foothills .... I've giving each one of the 2000 Silky saws ... the one with the acreage has an old Gator that he I'm sure he will put his in .... the other will pack it in his truck ..... from what I've seen messing with one back on our property line, they will most certainly use them ....

I'm sure they will love them after their first use!!

sure hope so .... as noted, they won't replace a chainsaw but can come in mighty handy

well, a sheath for our Accel 240 arrived today so our Silky collection is now complete .... below can be seen our yellowish handle Big Boy 2000 and reddish orange and black handle Accel 240 .... both saws will be packed in our camper so as to be available while we are traveling .... while it would be great if we never have to use either of them to remove a limb that could damage our camper ... that said, we do have plans to camp in Texas in a campground with a history of just such overhanging bushes/trees

Lookn' good!!
Great tools!

I really believe that they are .... in thinking back to the decades I ran a big game hunting club, I sure wish I had them back then .... there has been many a time that I had to use a knife to cut limbs around hunting stand that blocked a shooting lane or otherwise irritated me .. .. for years I've collected tree limbs and such to use in making walking canes .... these saws would sure have made cutting them easier and quicker
