    Definitely sounds like a scary learning experience. Glad you got lucky.

    I cut lots of honey locust. I just use the top of the bar to remove the thorns. It throws the thorns away. You also want good boots. The thorns can easily pierce a boot and your foot. They are savage looking trees, but great firewood.
