Gear Review: Bahco Laplander Folding Saw For bushcrafters, a reliable folding saw is a must-have, and the Bahco Laplander has earned its reputation as one of the best in its class. Lightweight yet durable, this 7.5-inch saw features a hardened, rust-resistant blade with aggressive teeth designed for both push and pull strokes, making quick work of greenwood, dry wood, and even bone. The comfortable rubberized handle ensures a secure grip, even in wet conditions, while the reliable locking mechanism keeps the blade firmly in place during use and transport. Unlike many budget saws, the Laplander’s low-friction coating prevents binding, making it ideal for extended use in the field. While some users may prefer a slightly longer blade for heavy-duty tasks, the Laplander strikes an excellent balance between portability and performance. Whether you're processing firewood, clearing a campsite, or crafting bushcraft tools, this saw is a compact powerhouse that belongs in every outdoor kit. Verdict: ★★★★★ – A trusted companion for any serious bushcrafter.
