Bone Saw

[Surrey Boy]

What do you use for a bone saw?

Is there any reason I can't just use a clean hand saw or hack saw?

I like my uncle's Ridgid plumbing saw, seems tougher and easier to use than most proper butchering saws.

In camp or in your pack?

Cordless reciprocating for camp. Hands down....although I leave mine at home....lol

I mean at home in the kitchen turning a carcass into cuts ready to serve.

Racks of ribs, osso bucco, chops and bone-in steaks.

I'm trying get away from making so much hamburger.

if it will cut wood or metal it will cut bone. A recip saw is great if you don't have a bandsaw.

Wyoming saw

Wyoming Saw 2, wood and bone blades, awesome saws used them for 35 years

A miter box hand saw works, a hacksaw would have to be a very course blade so it dosent plug up.

Home Depot sells a folding saw that works great...

Recommend Wymoing saw as well. Use it in the field to split brisket and pelvis, remove lower legs and when needed remove skull cap. Small and compact but have used on many elk, moose and several bison. Wood blade works great as well but use the bone saw 95% of the time.

my buddy has one amd we’ve used it for all of the above and then some. We had a moose die between 2 trees and the Wyoming saw took care of the trees so we could deal with the moose.

gerber machete with the saw on the back works pretty good, I wouldnt say kitchen quality but I use it for legs, sternum and pelvis and for trees on the trail and what not.

In the field, I carry a 15 inch Stanley Sharptooth saw. I have used it to remove lower legs, split brisket and pelvis bone and quarter several moose. Splitting the halves of a moose along the spine is big work with a hand saw but the sharptooth is up for the task.
My brother and I do our own butchering and while we usually bone the meat out as we cut it, we do use a butcher’s hand saw to cut short ribs.

We usually have a chainsaw or recip saw for quartering in moose camp. I have one of those folding jobbers for everything else if needed. Not the greatest but will get most things done. A good sharp hatchet also works wonders.

For working in the garage cutting and wrapping we use a hand saw. Bone saw we used worked but the wood hand saw was more rigid and just as fast
