I have memories of working a small field, with an older friend who cut it with a scythe. We then made haystacks... I think I'm dating myself a bit here...

Never used a crosscut saw, but used a buck saw lots with my dad.

Ain't that the truth!

When I'm doing trail maintenance, I will most often reach for a hand saw before I fire up the chainsaw - and that is one of the reasons. The other reason is that I like to let the saw cool down for a bit before continuing down the trail, and that takes time...
