Saw, Hand, Finger Grip, Survival. This saw (See Figure 2-46) is a wire saw with thumb-screw ring grips. Should
the wire break, the thumb-screws allow the broken wire to be reattached to the grip rings for continued use.
To use the saw, pull the wire saw blade through the small branch in a left-right-left-right pulling motion until the
small branch has been sawed through.
CAUTION
The finger-saw will not stand extreme pulling pressures. Be very careful with the sawing
motion. Do not bind the blade.
