Is the Laplander pretty sturdy? I'll have to take a look at one, if they are. It seems like a lot of the small folders don't lock up very well that I have looked at.
But the only ones I've tried are the Gerber, and the cheaper ones from hardware stores. One with a good locking mechanism would be welcome.
Is there a specific one you can link to, that works best?

I don't trust gerber for much of anything. Silky has some nice folding saws available. I just have the pocketboy, and it works well up to its limit. It would be nice to have a longer cutting stroke like the big boy, but without the tension on the blade (like a buck/sven) the extra length might be self-defeating.

Thanks for the tip on the Silky. I may grab one, I can always use it on the trees and shrubbery around the house. Should be a decent test, the trees are hardwoods.Originally Posted by PlatoCATM
What size teeth do you have on the Pocketboy? The webpage shows small, medium and large.

On that Silky KatanaBoy, here's a few more pic shots just to give an idea.

You know, the next time I have to do performance reviews at work, I think I'll bring one of those.
I have a feeling they will be finished in no time, with a minimum of debate.

Oh, and speaking of the Bahco Laplander.

I must admit to wanting to give the Bahco Laplander a try. I wanna say Canterbury/pathfinder gave thumbs up...
