Bucksaw

A bucksaw is a hand-powered frame saw[1] similar to bow saw and generally used with a sawbuck[2] to cut logs or firewood to length (bucking).

It is meant to cut wood fibers that are under tension, and is thick so that it is more difficult to bend on the push stroke.

Bucksaws can be used for a number of tasks like clearing land, chopping firewood, cutting lumber, and sometimes kept handy for small logging projects.

Bucksaws feature coarse teeth that allow them to work with very big timber and are designed to allow replacing the blades after extensive woodworking projects.

The advantage of this tool is that electric power (or cord) is not needed to use it, and its affordability makes easily replaceable.
