Crosscut saws remain an essential tool for forestry professionals, trail crews, and conservation teams working in remote or protected areas where power tools are impractical or restricted. Whether you're felling trees or clearing downed logs, a quality crosscut saw offers reliable, quiet performance and control in the field.
We offer both one-man crosscut saws and two-man crosscut saws, built for durability and efficient cutting in demanding outdoor environments. From trail maintenance to wilderness restoration, these traditional tools are classics for a reason—no fuel or batteries required.
What to Look for in a Crosscut Saw
Saw Type
One-Man Crosscut Saws: Designed for solo operation, ideal for clearing small trees, branches, or logs. Often paired with a felling wedge for efficiency.
Two-Man Crosscut Saws: Built for teamwork, these longer saws make quick work of large logs and are often used in trail work or historic logging practices.
Tooth Pattern: Choose a saw with a lance tooth pattern for general felling or a perforated lance for both felling and bucking. These designs clear sawdust efficiently and reduce binding during cuts.
Blade Length: Longer blades provide smoother cuts for larger logs, while shorter blades offer more control for precision tasks.
Handle Design: Look for comfortable, secure handles—especially if you’re working in wet or cold conditions. Some models feature removable or reversible handles for transport and storage.
Field Maintenance: Quality crosscut saws should allow for easy sharpening and maintenance with standard saw tools and files.
