We are helping a neighbour take down a massive laurel type tree. After being
knocked out with all the sawing we thought one of the reciprocating type
saws would be the answer.

These are the type of things, as in this page of the argos on line
catalogue.

In the paper catalogue they also list a Bosh for £79.

Would anyone have experience of these types of saws for cutting into *green*
wood, and perhaps could recommend a particular one? Thanks.

For a one-off job it might be better to hire it. There are plenty of
hire shops in yellow pages.
