Folding or fixed-blade: where to start

A folding saw closes its blade into the handle for storage. The Fanno collection includes folding models with different blade lengths and tooth patterns. Check the listed dimensions rather than assuming that every folding model has the same cutting edge. Fixed-blade saws keep the blade in a rigid working position. Some models in this collection include a sheath; others do not. The included-items field on each product page explains what comes with that particular saw. Compare the handle, blade length, cutting-edge length and points per inch. Blade length and cutting-edge length are different measurements. Choose from the specifications of the exact model, and read the product instructions before use.
