FAQs
What is the difference between a pruning saw and a bow saw?
The main difference between a pruning saw and a bow saw is their design and purpose. A pruning saw has a curved blade, which is great for precise cuts on smaller branches and detailed pruning. A bow saw, with its long, straight blade and strong frame, is better for cutting larger branches and logs. Pruning saws are good for detailed work with larger, sharper teeth, while bow saws are built for tougher, heavy-duty tasks.
Is a curved pruning saw better than a straight one?
A curved pruning saw is usually better for cutting branches above your head or below your waist because it stays in the cut and works well in tight spots. It’s more efficient for heavy cutting and reaching at different angles. On the other hand, a straight pruning saw is easier to use for cutting in front of you and getting into tight spaces. Straight pruning saws are commonly used by professionals for their simplicity in various situations.
Can a pruning saw cut branches?
Yes, a pruning saw can cut branches effectively. It is designed for handling branches that are around 2 inches in diameter, with some models capable of cutting branches up to 6 inches thick. Pruning saws come in various styles, including curved blades for more efficient cutting and different sizes for ease of handling. Pruning saws are a versatile tool in the garden, complementing other tools like tree loppers, bow saws and axes.
