Favorite portable wood processing tools

[jsutch]

I'm a big fan of the parang, a folding pruning saw, and a mora knife as bushcraft wood processing. My fiskars saw is lightweight and does fine with emergency wood cutting, the parang is great for both batoning and branch cleaning for shelter, and the mora for feathersticks. What are your go-tos?

I often use a Marlin .45-70 Guide Gun with a hard cast bullet to trim large tree branches.
Precise and efficient.

Does that count?

 

[foxmeadow]

Husqvarna 272XP, Stihl 250, and EGO 16" electric. I use the EGO more than the gassers about 5:1.

Edited to add: 22 ton hydraulic splitter.

I once cut down the family Christmas tree with an AK47 does that count too?

We have always used a shotgun. Added benefit in that the trunk is pre-shredded to absorb water better.

Hunting or collecting firewood : Husky 450 Rancher, Homelite XL30, various axes, wedges and my Estwing hatchet.
Deep woods camping : a 24" folding bowsaw and my hatchet.

My personal favorite. Does hella job on the wood.

 

[tabor123]

Husqvarna 455 is my go to chainsaw, a good maul, and a nice 26" axe with a good head for splitting. Most important thing is just maintaining your tools though.

Silky pocket boy. My brother got me one for xmas and we have been hunting together for a few years and on one trip we both forgot our saw. It was then that I realized how much value I'm getting out of that thing.

Stihl MS462 CM is a tree bucking beast !

 

[arthurclarke]

Peavey with a jack. I have to clean up a few fallen big trees every year and this has helped me alot.

Hooyman extendable tree saw for bowhunting out of my tree climber. I had the black 10 footer. Now they're green.

Concur with what jsutch promotes...in regards to. light weight saws I would also look at Silky Saws...they work.
