The community knows the Bahco Laplander well and to clarify my Bahco
Laplander has held up to it's name. In short its proven to be a worthy
companion.
The saw is very simple with a firm grip and locking mechanism. Its
intended use is for the smaller jobs we find around camp for instance
making suitable chunks of firewood or shelter building. You are not
meant to process very large chunks of wood with the Bahco Laplander.
The blade teeth are branded as XT teeth and they are razor sharp. The
benefit of this is they are very fine and help make cutting as easy as
possible. The anticorrosion layer which coats the blade helps reduce
friction whilst cutting. On the other hand it helps with prolonging
the life of the blade.
Using an axe alongside the Bahco is great. For instance the two
combined allow for some wonderful carvings or shelters. Above all it
speeds up producing firewood therefore saving you valuable time out in
the woods. You can even split wood with just a saw and a few well
placed cuts.
My Bahco Laplander has held its bite for many years but most
importantly you can buy replacement blades.
If you are considering getting a cheaper no brand saw stop yourself
and get this one. It is very good at what it does!
It weighs 175g and is 23cm long. Below are some photos of the saw
showing its features.
