Switching from a chainsaw to a handsaw for limbing... anyone else make the change?
I used to just grab my Stihl MS170 for everything, even small branches around my property in Concord. But after a close call two summers ago where the kickback almost got me, I started using an old Silky Zubat for anything under 4 inches. It takes longer but I feel way more in control and I don't scare the dogs. Anyone else ditch the gas for manual work on the small stuff?

Honestly that kickback scare sounds terrifying, glad you switched up your routine.

Makes me remember the time I almost launched a table saw across the garage.
