Small saw that doesn’t take up space
There’s a 30 cm mark, but I added marks for every 5 cm. Snow card area is small, but it works fine so long as it stays in the shade or snow. I don’t mind the angled handle, but I do prefer straight ones.

Lightweight Perfection
Great saw for your winter backcountry kit. Everything you need in a snow saw and nothing you don’t.

Snow saw
Great snow saw, sheath isn’t my favorite but seems to hold fine so far. Like the handle with the ability to store cord

Light and simple. Sharp enough
Light and simple. Sharp enough to cut through solid ice in no time. Fits perfectly in an Avy pocket.

Awesome & simple saw
Haven’t used mine yet but I’ve been sharing with a friend of mine who’s had it for several years. The cord on the handle is great and I love the crystal chart and length measurements. Super light and great for anyone going into the mountains during winter.
