if you had one handsaw to carry…,

So they do. Not enough to fix mine, though.

I haven't checked out the other options yet. I don't think finding a re-shipper in Australia will work too well for me, but it's a consideration. I think they can still get all the parts.

I'm not too crazy about pole saws, too heavy on the far end.

I've had no problem keeping my Hayate saws going...

At this moment in time, at age 52 my pick would be MS500i, I hope to use chainsaws for the rest of my life. When I lose the muscle ability to safely cut with that one, then would have to find that right fit.

Not a handsaw, but I have heard it is a fine chainsaw.

Good point, next time I will pay a little closer attention while multitasking.

Multitasking is a very dangerous practice in this industry... much better to do one thing at a time well.

Fwiw, I have a few different hand saws, 13" curved komelon that works pretty well. It's held an edge well and I find it handy for small stuff and climbing when an actual saw isn't required. We had silky folding saws at the township and they were great. Can't remember the model name anymore, I would have bought one but it wasn't worth the cost to me vs how my cheap one works. I've inherited a Corona straight blade and think it's just a meh saw. It's not super sharp, but I think that's more from its former owners neglect than anything.

After a season of using the Silky Zubat, it is now my favorite. Also I have been using a Jameson pole saw/pruner setup which has been great.

I certainly like to carry my Echo 330T but it's not great for bigger work, maybe go up to my Husqvarna 353 for medium stuff.

Again, this is a handsaw thread.

Silky or an orange ARS.

You can use that 330T as a handsaw, but it's not very effective until you start it up.

If they didn't want my reply why did they send it to me. I only use a handsaw for cutting 2X4s.

Because this is the third time in 9 months you have replied to this thread, always about your 330t...
