Jameson Hand Saw with Scabbard

The Jameson hand saw with scabbard is a fixed-blade pruning saw sold with a matching sheath, so it is ready to clip on and work. It is a practical choice for ground crews and climbers who want a dependable saw without a premium price.

A working saw, ready to carry

A fixed-blade saw is quicker than a folder when you are cutting all day: draw it, make the cut, put it back. Having the scabbard included means you are not shopping for a separate sheath that may or may not fit the blade.

This saw suits ground workers cleaning up brush, climbers doing light to medium pruning, and crews that want spare saws on the truck. For other blade lengths and premium Japanese saws, see hand saws and scabbards.

Crews buying for several people like a saw and scabbard sold together because the fit is known and setup is quick. New ground workers can learn on a solid, affordable saw before moving to a premium blade, and an experienced climber can keep one as a spare on the truck for days when the main saw is out of service.

Carry and care

Clip the scabbard where you can reach it with either hand and where it will not snag your climbing line. Always sheath the saw before you move in the tree or walk across the site.

Keep the blade clean of sap and dry before it goes back in the scabbard. Empty sawdust from the sheath now and then so the blade seats fully. Replace the saw or blade when it cuts slowly or a tooth breaks.

When the blade gets dull or a tooth snaps, look at replacing the saw rather than filing it. Pruning teeth are hardened for long life, and a sharp saw is safer than one you have to force through the wood.
