About this item

  • EMERGENCY TOOL – CUT FIREWOOD & CLEAR PATHS – The Nordic Pocket Saw is a manual chainsaw designed for various outdoor activities and emergency situations. Use it to cut firewood, clear paths and bike trails from fallen trees, or take it on your hiking trip for easy firewood preparation.
  • LIGHTWEIGHT & PACKABLE – This camping saw weighs less than a keychain and takes up less space than a wallet. Stay prepared by keeping an emergency saw in your car’s glove box, your backpack when hiking or mountain biking, or storing it with your snowmobile.
  • BI-DIRECTIONAL TEETH – CUTS BOTH WAYS – The saw chain features teeth that point toward each other, allowing it to cut efficiently in both directions. Unlike many competitors, this chainsaw has cutting teeth on every link, ensuring a smoother and faster cutting experience.
  • CUT LOGS UP TO 18 INCHES THICK – While our survival pocket chainsaw can handle heavy logs, the ideal thickness is around 2-8 inches. For thinner sticks and branches, we recommend using a foldable saw. For larger logs, team up with a friend and each grab a handle for double the cutting power.
  • EASY TO SHARPEN – ONLY 2-3 TIMES A YEAR – If you use your manual chainsaw a few times a month, you'll only need to sharpen the chain 2-3 times a year using an 11/64" round file. Additionally, be sure to keep the chain clean and lubricate it occasionally with standard chainsaw oil.



Product Description

Nordic Pocket saw logo
  • It’s not recommended, as the chain only has cutting teeth on one side. For high-up branches, we suggest using a double-sided saw chain. Check out our Arborist Version 2, specifically designed for cutting high-up branches.

  • The recommended cutting range for a pocket chainsaw is 2” to 18”. For larger logs, ask a friend to hold one handle and cut together. A folding saw is ideal for smaller branches and is typically limited to logs around 5” thick.

  • Watch our maintenance video or follow these steps: Use a standard 11/64” round file to sharpen the chain. Clean off sawdust, ensure smooth links, and apply chain oil. For 20 minutes of use every other week, sharpen once per quarter.

  • Its compact size and lightweight design make it ideal for camping trips to cut firewood. Add it to your survival kit or store it in your glove box. It’s perfect for emergencies, such as clearing a tree blocking a road or path.

  • Keep the chain tight at all times—if it loosens, it’s more likely to get stuck. Maintain tension as you pull back and forth, letting the teeth do the work. Use your upper body and widen your arms to keep it moving smoothly.

Attempted to cut a branch smaller in diameter than that pictured in the instructions, made sure that the teeth were facing into the wood, but it only tickled the branch.Will make another attempt to test it on another branch.In the meantime "Meh".

Works great for larger logs. Good for off grid camping when you have to find your own firewood. It’s a workout to use but cuts super quick. If used for camping, recommend second fold out saw for smaller cuts as it tends to bind a little.

Light, compact, great to carry when hunting to clear trails or an errant tree limb.

I bought this to cut some errant main branches off of a cyanothus dark star tree in my back yard, since none of my existing saws were really up to the task. I also didn't want to spend more money than necessary and get a motorized chainsaw since it will get so little use.PLEASE BE SURE TO WEAR HAND, ARM, AND EYE PROTECTION WHEN USING THIS SAW!!!! It is scarily sharp, and will easily take a big chunk (or several) out of your hands or arms if you make contact during operation. Please also be sure to start slowly, and get lots of practice to get the feel of this, being particularly careful to keep your hands and arms out of the travel path of the chain.This saw made for very quick and easy work of cutting the branches off of the tree. When you're almost through, the chain tends to just get stuck, due to the suddenly very sharp angle of the blade against the tiny diameter of what's left to be cut. I've not figured out how to work around that yet, and twisted and pried the branch to free the saw, and tear the remaining piece of the branch away from the tree.The instructions also direct to frequently oil the chain, but provide no advice or guidance for actually doing so. I wound up soaking the entire chain in a small plastic cup full of bar and chain oil, which makes for a very messy chain...I've still not figured out how to clean the excess oil from the chain.I'd also recommend purchasing the longer size, as I did. It seems to me that the shorter length would have made getting through the branches much more difficult and time-consuming, for no real benefit (aside from a lower price). The pouch the longer saw comes in is TINY, and has a belt loop, which is thoughtful and convenient.

Visto il prezzo sicuramente mi aspettavo un buon prodotto ma non pensavo di riuscire a tagliare tronchi da 40/50cm come fossero burro, c'è da farci la mano ed imparare la tecnica ma una volta fatto si taglia qualsiasi cosa dagli alberi a terra a quelli impiedi, veramente incredibile dopo l'uso ogni volta lavarla e spray per catene vi durerà a vita

Per rimuovere gli alberi caduti sui sentieri spesso è necessario sezionarne il tronco. La sega a catena, diversamente dalle seghe a lama, lavora nella parte bassa tra il tronco e il terreno. In questo modo al procedere del taglio, per effetto del peso dell’albero, i due spezzoni si allargano favorendo il passaggio della catena (La dove la sega a lama operando al lato opposto viene stretta dai due spezzoni del tronco)

Okay first thing I do have an actual chain saw and I use it for collecting firewood but I kept this little one in my glove box. Well I was out driving the dirt roads and I came across a tree fall that I couldn't clear. The ranger was already there but his dependable chainsaw was not being dependable. So I was talking with him and then I remembered that I had this. I said do you mind if I try my hand saw out. He said no problem. Long story short this saw was through that 8 inch log in no time and the rest of the smaller ones made it seem effortless. I won't go deep woods camping without this saw. Well worth the money and it is in my bug out survival pack ready for use. As with all chainsaw I recommend keeping it oiled lightly and clean it. You can also sharpen it. Take care of your equipment and you can rest easily that your equipment will take good care of you. Good quality

This is a wonderful backpacking tool to cut firewood that a small hatchet will struggle to do. Well made and small enough to fit in a couple day pack into the forest.

Love this saw! I used it together with towing straps to help take down oak limbs above where I could go with a ladder. (I was removing the whole tree for fire safety—NorCal). The chain is thinner than a regular chain saw and light, but worked smoothly and beautifully. The strap handles put up with a lot of abuse as well and show little wear. I now keep it with my emergency gear and am buying another for extended camping trips. The simple fact is you will get worn out before this product ever does. It takes some cardio to maintain a rhythm, but the blade will do its part. This costs more than other brands, but think of this like buying any other good tool. Worth it!
