Corona Razor Tooth 7-inch
Score: 75/100
Bahco Laplander
Score: 85/100Rankings
The Bahco Laplander is a compact, lightweight folding pruning saw designed for bushcraft, camping, and trail maintenance with efficient push-pull performance. While it offers clean cuts on small wood, it is slower on thick green wood and lacks the speed of specialized backpacking saws. It is ideal for backpackers and campers needing a reliable tool for processing branches up to 5 inches.
The Corona RS 7041 is a lightweight 7-inch folding pruning saw with a pistol-grip handle, designed for single-handed use on branches up to 3 inches. Its replaceable blade and RazorTOOTH technology offer good value for light pruning tasks. However, its limited capacity and lack of user reviews make it less suitable for heavy-duty applications.

Professional reviewers praise the Bahco Laplander for its reliability, precise mechanics, and superior wet grip, calling it an invaluable tool for bushcraft and camping.
