The circular works five times faster. Smoother and cleaner. Chain saws are also more productive. But, if you need to saw off not very "straight" and in uncomfortable places - definitely, a saber is better. "Country jigsaw". Actually, I took a saw to try. There is a large amount of work to be done on the finishing of the newly built dacha. As a result, I use it all the time. Including cut firewood for barbecue. If it breaks, the next will be the battery version of the saw. Although a hatchet, a hand narrow saw and a delimber can handle pruning in the area. Much faster and more convenient. Put 4-ku due to the fact that there are other, more advanced models. However, this suits me just fine. I decided to supplement the review after a year with little use. Pila is quite alive. During this time it did not break. I had to cut a plaster wall with it - they moved a doorway in a panel house. Saw off in the same place 12mm fittings on which radiators hung. The tree trunk is already in the country - 25x30 (oval).
