PSA: the $75 folding handsaw in my truck has paid for itself twice over
I grabbed a Silky saw for a tight limb removal in a backyard last month, and after about 40 minutes of clean fast cuts in a spot where my chainsaw had no room to fit, I stopped thinking about the price, so what small tool surprised you like that?
Wondering if the price tag is really the point here. A $75 saw paying for itself twice over just means you did two jobs with it, which any $20 hardware store saw would also do. The real question is whether that fancy blade actually saves you time on a normal day, not one weird backyard job where nothing else fit. Sounds like you talked yourself into liking it after the fact. A tool that costs that much should be surprising you every single week, not once a month.
