One of my library patrons is a landscaper. He said today that Silky is the brand he buys, whether folding or fixed. The other patron I had previously talkedto about saws was also in, and he favors the really big Silkuly katanaboy folding saws for clearing bike trails. I think at that size I would agree with Wranglerstar and go with a fixed handsaw, but to each their own.

There was a time when Gerber made some neat tools, including a credible Leatherman competitor my dad used to have, but they seem to be more name than substance now.
