[QUOTE="fields_mj, post: 8032983, member: 32139"] I'm definitely in the group that will not one hand a saw. I've had all of my saws "kick" at one point or another, but I've never had one kick so hard that it came anywhere near my body. Most of the time the kicks were while I was initiating a plunge cut and I got too aggressive too soon. That said, I follow the recommendations above and I wear a helmet and chaps. I enjoy the work, but I don't enjoy stitches or loosing a lot of blood. Haven't tried dying yet. Its on my list of things to do, but its at the VERY bottom of the list and I'd like to keep it there for quite a while. [/QUOTE]
