Friday, December 11th, 2015Gerber – Freescape Camp Saw
Sunday, November 29th, 2015Here’s another great Christmas gift idea. The Gerber Freescape Camp Saw accepts standard 12″ saw blades and folds flat for storage. Unlike many folding saws, the Fresscape utilizes 4 pivot points to effectively cut larger diameter wood while using the full length of the blade. When folded up, the blade is protected and can be stowed safely in a gear kit or camp bin. The bright green color makes it easy to find and the rubber handle is for a positive grip.
