Funny that looks like what we used to call a rip saw, not a pruning saw!

Anyway it may be good but not manoeuvrable enough to get into some of the
tight spots. Thanks for the link though.


A rip saw was for cutting down the length of timber whilst a cross cut
was used to cut across the grain.


Indeed it was, but its general shape was much like the one you
are talking about. It is obviously all in the teeth.
