I've always been taught to avoid using the top half of the saw nose to avoid kickback which has never been a problem - I've never needed to use it. But I see a lot of pictures of people either making noodles, or displaying their many saws by having a few of them "dived" into a large log at suitably attractive angles so as to splay them out for the picture.
Not something I intend to do any time soon, as I have no need to (and only one decent saw ), but how is this done? Is it safe if BOTH sides of the nose are being used, i.e a "stabbing" cut, or are these pictures just taken by mad lunatics?
