Swedish bow saw, surplus

Even with stupidity tax now added to UK orders this is proper value. A week or so after it arrived storm Arwen ripped out half the trees in my field and knocked out the power for a week: so no electric heating and no electric chainsaw. This is an excellent alternative to a chainsaw when you've got a hangover and value your limbs, want to keep warm, and prefer the sounds of nature to be broken only by your own wheezing and rasping breath. It's a user straight out the box: the blade is razor sharp and whistles through thick green Leyland cypress and spruce. Thin kerf + perfect tension + sharpness = minimum effort. You could add a new (30") blade with a different tooth pattern to use on seasoned wood, but the tension and weight of this saw are designed for green wood. Replacement blades are available, but the original blade should last a long time. Could probably be resharpened if you have a diamond file. The frame is bombproof and means the saw cuts efficiently under its own weight, so no need to apply any downward pressure at all. Unlike most Chinesium saws the symmetrical frame on this one means it's much easier to use with someone either end, but the costs of small talk might outweigh the benefits of an additional pull stroke. Insane value. The only possible downside is that it blends so well into the background that it's hard to find after you've put it down and staggered away in a hypoxic state. Add white paint to complete the misery when it snows.
