Do you know a way to sharpen the saw blade? I haven't found anybody with the right tools, and improvising is likely to make it worse, not better.

I've never done one, but I would think that it would be the same as sharpening a serrated blade when you are equipment-challenged. On serrated, I grind a very shallow zone on the flat side and buff off the slight burr. Should work with the saw.

It is an aggressive, mean little bugger and surely works on deer/elk mooses wonderfully.

Steve, my hats off to you and your design. I love that little gerber. If I didnt have a 2nd one I wouldnt even think of getting rid of it.

How's the steel on these things? Hold an edge pretty good and quick to touch up when needed?

You guys have got me interested...going to have to start my own search.

....It's the handiest knife I've ever owned. The saw blade has the best cutting action I've ever found on any saw!
