In the video, the 1000 went through the log like butter. The 650 went back and forth, and back and forth, and back and forth...just like my experience with all the handsaws.

How exciting. What a story. I was lucky enough to see the birchbark canoe made during the Survival of the Bark Canoe. This is way more exciting. Welcome to the forum, btw. Do you post on the Song of the Paddle? I’m planning to be in London in May and will be contacting you all soon.

The attractive feature of the Silky 1000 is how easily it cut through the 8 inch log. It was six swipes. With the 650 it was more than double that. For an aging lady, that’s a remarkable difference.

I love to see children out on the water. What a good idea to get a canoe!

I don’t think so, but it still a good one.

I cannot find the quote, but it was from an intrepid explorer who, when asked if he was ever afraid when wilderness tripping, answered, “Every minute.” Sometime I’ll run into that quote again and give it credit.

This quote grabbed me too. Thanks Tryin’ for the TR.

I just looked up the Silky 1000 on Amazon. It now is $1415.00. Yikes!

Amazing!

“Shockingly talented” says it all. Quote from one reviewer.

Great trip. It is so good to see youngsters enjoying themselves on the water.

I want one! That 1000 isn’t just for length. It’s also the price.

Great movie. Loved the whitewater scenes.

There are piebald dear around me. One summer a doe and her fawn hung out in a clearing near the power line. I think they done last long because they are too easy for predators, including human hunters, to see. This picture, not mine, looks the most like the last doe I saw.

Excellent. The last two trips I really could have used a saw. One of these. Could fit nicely into my kit.
