    Hard to beat a 562 for all around saw, but the one in the second photo sees a lot more use & the third even more.

    Ahhh, a Stumpy saw. The dude built some nice runners! Wish he would've kept around a little longer.

    My favorite Saw is the one thats lightest for the job at hand, the bigger the Wood the less you actually have to hold the weight of the saw

    I bought the Sugis back when they were under $50 & the speed tip was less than $40. But yes, top shelf bars. :)
