💥Links for my books and equipment below 👇👇👇
Is it possible to cut through a 10 cm spruce trunk with a 7 cm wood saw from a 91 mm SAK? In this video i teach you a special sawing technique with which it is possible to saw logs that are larger in diameter than the length of the saw.

Thank you so much my friend!!

Hi

[@rashadnagi7531]

Felix saying outright that this is only useful when you don't have a larger saw is wonderful. People ask me a lot why I like my victorinox so much when the tools are so small and limited. They aren't there to be my primary tools, but solutions when I don't, if that makes sense.

[@mannihh5274]

You don't even have to cut through the hole trunk. If you're somewhat down half way to the center, forget the saw and smash the weak point against a rock or a tree and it will break off - saves a lot of time. If it's already dead for some years and the bark is already gone it might be enough to saw away 1/3 to the center.

[@andrewallan6802]

Good work! I’m always really impressed with how the pen draws on lots of surfaces too. I’ve only used mine on paper.

[@heritagejonery3879]

A ball point pen is often better than a pencil, particularly on darker wood. I trained under a very skilled cabinet maker who used one a lot, obviously only if it's a mark you don't need to remove or is going to be hidden though, we genrally do cut the mark off anyway so is rarely an issue

[@victorzaidan6493]

That was extremely quick, congratulations, I'll take a bigger iron saw, but I might not even use it because if I only have a few things I think it's quicker to use the victorinox than to make a bushcraft saw frame

[@TheKimjoh560]

Thats pretty clever. Under perfect circumstances the maximun diameter you can cut is roughly twice that of the saws lenght using this technique.

[@FelixImmler]

not quite ... the saw still needs hub. I would say the trunk may be a maximum of 1.5 times the length of the saw

[@TheKimjoh560]

@@FelixImmler Haha yes. Its very theoretical and it would be very exhausting and time consuming cutting only on the pull stroke of course.

[@jeffnotti9932]

This is a very good trick.. but it is not for the faint of heart.. you really have to make you marks correctly and then your rotations correctly to get it right.. this is a very very good one... J

I have wanted to get into whittling, carving, general woodworking etc... Because of you I have decided to initially only invest in a 'Huntsman', and to hit the woods (instead of investing in many tools). I am now more curious about general bushcraft. Getting my SAK in few days. We'll see where it takes me.

[@FelixImmler]

I wish you good luck and a lot of fun!

[@mihamaker]

Or you dont need to go around full circle. Make the first cut, than continue cutting only pushing the saw down at the handle part, and tip remains more or less at the same place. Gliding on the last cut area because it have solid no toot tip. Continue doing that until you reach about 2/3 of diameter. Reposition the saw 90 degree from the last cut and continue sawing until trough. First cut area figuratively shortens the diameter or the path that saw needs to travel. Nice work regardless on all your tips. I had a few Swiss army knives since my childhood, and rally liked exploring the woods and functionality of the tools, at and around the house.

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot for your super interesting comment!! This described technique is very inspiring.

[@wildbrigante9596]

Wow that's an amazing trick! Next series: Trousers belt Tips and Tricks! 😅 Great advice about aligning the cuts with the belt!

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot my friend!

[@heritagejonery3879]

Great tip, I know this is for if you are stuck but a fun fact about saws is you should only be cutting something half the length of the saw. So for the 91mm models the "correct" size material shouldn't exceed 35mm. If you cut bigger you will find you saw clogs up, it's quite easy to clean out on a little branch you cut with your penknife though. This is true for all saw. It become much more important with large cross cut saw as you need to eject all the chips into you will get a biuld up if chips in the middle, this will cause a binding point but much worse a hot spot that could, and dose, damage your saw.

Viel Glück und viel Sägen, Felix! Ich fand ja schon immer, dass der beste Moment beim Sägen der ist, in dem das abgeschnittene Stück nach unten purzelt.Und der Schmerz im Arm deutlich nachlässt 😁😁😁 Die Methode ist klasse (und Dein Durchhaltevermögen Legende), ich benütz die auch bei dünneren Ästen pa dem Trumm hier, wenn das Holz zu hart ist ... da bild ich mir dann ein, es ginge leichter. Da nehm ich dann auch keine Quadrate sondern Dreiecke.😁 Danke für die geniale Vorführung und viel Spaß! LG, Robert

[@FelixImmler]

Vielen Dank lieber Robert. Werde ich auch mal ausprobieren, im Dreieck zu schneiden. Liebe Grüsse

[@bangalorebobbel]

@@FelixImmler Ja probieren geht über studieren - obwohl Du das wahrscheinlich gar nicht brauchst, die europäischen Hölzer sind ja nicht so extrem hart wie manches von dem Zeug, was mir hier unterkommt. Mein Trick ist halt immer zu versuchen, nie den vollen Durchmesser zu sägen, da säg ich dann eben lieber von ein paar Seiten und halte die Schnittdurchmesser möglichst kurz. Manchmal dreh ich das Holz auch so um ca. 15°-30°, säg ein bißchen, dann wieder diesen Winkel, und so weiter. Und manchmal ist das Holz hier dann auch noch so extrem hart, dass ich es gleich mit der Metallsäge versuche ... schont dann ja auch die richtige Säge 😁 Apropos Metallsäge: die ist auch meine erste Wahl wenn es darum geht, Gras zu sägen, also in meinem Fall natürlich Bambus. Mit der normalen Säge am Vic kann es nämlich vorkommen, dass die Schnittkanten ziemlich ausfransen, irgendwie hakt die Zahnung sich in den Fasern ein. Wenn ich aber die Metallsäge nehme, ist das Problem ziemlich reduziert bis ganz verschwunden ... LG, Robert

Seems the ratio is the square-root of 2 = 1.414213562. I'm liking your work, Felix - I've daily carried a Swiss Champion since the mid-1980s - had to hand it over when my work took me inside the UK Parliament, but I've always got it respectfully handed back by the police guards. But oh the irony when a pair of scissors was needed to trim the name badges!
