The ultimate bone saw...

Here in the east we generally don't have to quarter game to retrieve it. Most comes out whole, so there's usually not much use for a small packable saw. Until then, I'll use this one. It's a bit big [24"] for packin', but it's second to none.

Those big ol' meat saws are neat and, as you noted, when packability isn't one of the criteria, work real well. I think dad still has grandpa's around somewhere. Thanks for reminding me, I need to track it down. It'd be cool, putting it back to work next year...:cool:
 
I threw the saws away a couple of years ago when my Dad pulled out some pruning shears, believe it or not!
Once you cut the tissue down to the ribcage you oughta see how easy splitting the chest open is. It also works really well on spines, legs etc, etc and no little bone filings all over everything. Try it and you'll be shocked.
 
$4 drywall saw from Peavey Mart I have been using one for the last 7 years.We must have done 60 animals with it .It's still sharp,Carry it in an old knife sheath, or in a backpack put a piece of split hose over the blade
 
Drywall saw works well on deer but they cost me $7 locally. Stanley fat max works well on moose or any carpenter saw for that matter. I use a recip saw mostly but never seen a cordless that would stand up to moose. If you use a chainsaw no oil at all is nessesary.
 
Reciprocating saw and s/s sawblade 16" long.

I've tried most bone saws and none work as good as a real saw.

I do like the idea of a cordless reciprocating saw though.:D

X2 this saw is not designed for the job, but is an excellent bone saw.
The design of the teeth make it self cleaning, it doesn't plug up as a typical wood saw will when cutting meat and bone.
We've split the spine of several moose with it now, and are using it at the deer camp for quartering prior to butchering in camp.
