Review: Great for the pack, fun to unpack - I have used survival saws, hatchets, sven saws, and silky saws on my many camping and hiking adventures. This is hands down the best compromise choice for a saw I have ever used. Ive used it twice now and it has not failed to impress me yet. The people around you will be impressed as you unfold this into a close to full size saw. They will be further impressed as you demolish wood with this transformer. The bite is fantastic. On a recent trip to get a wild christmas tree, the cutting it down was the easiest part. The 8 inch diameter tree took about 7 minutes to saw through and probably would have taken even less if it wasn't a tricky angle to get to. It takes standard blades, though the one it comes with works great on 10 or so logs I've cut. I did find that the using the belly works a bit better than the tip, as the forward two inches or so seemed more prone to getting stuck. It could have been the wood as it just happened twice cutting the same (live) tree in two spots. Still I'd stick with the belly for better performance. I have a little worry just about the longevity of it all, as the lighter pieces and folding design make more failure points, but the quality is good and gerber has always put out solid if not cutting edge designs, so I'm pretty confident this will hold up. If you buy this, unpackage it and put it in a lucky someones stock I guarantee it will be their favorite present this holiday season once they see it transform. You should go ahead and stock some logs near by because they will want to use it. This is a great piece of kit that will earn a place in my pack if I now wood processing will be on the agenda. Review: Compact, sturdy, ease of use - Great tool for handling sizable chunks outside or at home. When assembled, the blade is pulled tightly so it's less likely to snap. Can use normal 12" saw blades, which is available at very cheap price, and more compact than similar products in 21". Not sure if it's made of aluminum or steel but feels very solid and quite heavy. Can also store a couple of replacement blades in handle although they need to be taken out when the saw is assembled. The slot on the screw head is a bit shallow which I imagine would make field switch of blades a bit difficult. Also the diameter of the screw and the hook is quite large which is good as to durability. On the other hand as a result, some of the standard 12-inch blades with smaller holes may not fit, but that's an easy fix by enlarging the holes using a drill. Only that you need to double check before you take these replacement blades out with you. ## Features - INNOVATIVE FOLDING DESIGN: Folds completely flat while staying assembled, preventing loss of parts and ensuring easy transport - EFFICIENT CUTTING: Utilizes 4 pivot points to maximize the blade's length for cutting larger diameter wood - BRIGHT ACCENT COLORS: Features bright green accents for easy identification among camp gear - SECURE GRIP HANDLE: Freescape textured rubber handle provides a firm grip in all conditions - CONVENIENT PORTABILITY: 12" blade folds flat to fit easily in your backpack or gear kit ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00TZKFA0Q | | Best Sellers Rank | #20,213 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #9 in Camping Saws | | Blade Length | 12 Inches | | Blade Material | Aluminum Oxide | | Blade Shape | Rectangular | | Brand | Gerber | | Brand Name | Gerber | | Color | Black and Green | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 784 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00013658143814 | | Handle Material | Rubber | | Included Components | Bare Tool | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 5.5"L x 1.2"W x 17"H | | Item Type Name | Camping Saw | | Item Weight | 1 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Gerber | | Manufacturer Part Number | 0539-0999 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | See manufacturer | | Model Number | 31-002820 | | Number of Teeth | 6 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Foldable, Lightweight | | Power Source | Hand Powered | | Special Feature | Foldable, Lightweight | | Surface Recommendation | Wood | | UPC | 013658143814 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Type | Limited Lifetime | ## Product Details - **Blade Material:** Aluminum Oxide - **Brand:** Gerber - **Color:** Black and Green - **Power Source:** Hand Powered - **Surface Recommendation:** Wood ## Images ![Freescape Camp Saw Folding Hand Saw for Backpacking Hiking Camping Pruning and Bushcraft, 12" Blade - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/715vsOlhurL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is there extra blades for this?** A: Update. Comes with one blade installed and one with as a spare. They listened! **Q: What are the dimensions when it's folded up? Is the blade completely enclosed so that it won't snag while in my pack?** A: Longest measurements off a solid surface = 13-7/8 x 1-13/16 x 1-1/8. The blade is enclosed for the most part but there are two small openings (1/4" and 1/2") where material could be pushed into and get snagged. It won't be a problem though if you keep the plastic blade guard on before folding it back up. **Q: How much does this weigh?** A: It weighs .42kg or 14.9oz **Q: Is the tab that holds the blade near the handle plastic or metal?** A: The green handle is plastic. All other parts are metal including the male “tab” that inserts into the end of the saw blade. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for the pack, fun to unpack *by A***R on December 7, 2015* I have used survival saws, hatchets, sven saws, and silky saws on my many camping and hiking adventures.

I found this on line and ordered it for a trip coming up (next week). I haven't used it yet - but it is very solid once you lock the handle in place. The saw breaks down to a slim bar for packing. Stoked to try this out. 9/19/2016 update We went on a back pack trip as a group. Most of my friends are experienced outdoors men as we all live in Colorado. Everyone gave the saw a try. Worked great, very sturdy. I did see another gave the saw a bad review. If your trying to cut a cord of wood, you'll definitely want a larger saw. However, this one packs away nicely (it folds into a stick) in your pack hardly taking any room. We camped for 3 days and sawed lots of wood for our camp fire. We didn't attempt anything larger than 7 inches in diameter. Everyone that used it gave it complements ## Frequently Bought Together - Gerber Freescape Camp Saw Folding Hand Saw for Backpacking Hiking Camping Pruning and Bushcraft, 12" Blade - Gerber Gear Pack Hatchet - 3.5" Steel Blade Axe with Full Tang - Survival, Bushcraft and Camping Gear - with Mountable Nylon Sheath - Brown - RHINO USA Folding Survival Shovel w/Pick - Heavy Duty Carbon Steel Military Style Entrenching Tool for Off Road, Camping, Gardening, Beach, Digging Dirt, Sand, Mud & Snow. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/20471907-freescape-camp-saw-folding-hand-saw-for-backpacking-hiking-camping](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/20471907-freescape-camp-saw-folding-hand-saw-for-backpacking-hiking-camping) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
