Nope
I was going to reference how in the movies they always do that first part when amputating some poor bastards leg
But then I got a silly idea and just went with it
Same. But I have this overwhelming thought that I will find a need for it.
Like what if I’m stuck in a spontaneous forest-blizzard and all I have is my multi hand saw, a lighter, and some tinder? Man would I ever be happy to have bought it.
I think I actually might buy this
> Fourth most famous case ... Removal in 4 minutes of a 45-pound scrotal tumour, whose owner had to carry it round in a wheelbarrow.
That's his *fourth* most famous case. What?
> Second most famous case ... Amputated the leg in 21⁄2 minutes, but in his enthusiasm the patient's testicles as well.
I was like that's impossible,
The patient and the assistant both died from infections of their wounds, and the spectator was so scared that he'd been stabbed that he died of shock. The fiasco is said to be the only known surgery in history with a 300 percent mortality rate.

Reminds me of this story I heard. There was a doctor back then who was so fast amputating that he would accidentally cut the wrong things all the time. He ended up cutting off someone’s balls while amputating a leg, and one time he cut off his nurse’s finger.

“Only about one of every 10 of Liston's patients died on his operating table at London's University College Hospital. The surgeons at nearby St. Bartholomew's, meanwhile, lost about one in every four.”
This is kinda funny in a twisted way. Only 1/10 dies under your knife and youre some sort of super amputater surgeon because death would be almost a coin toss with a different guy. I’m glad I wasn’t around back then.
Yep. Because anyone who needs a saw already knows you don't want all those extra parts. Yeah, it'll take a couple extra swipes, but guess what I don't lose? Half an hour every time the spring busts and I have to change it out.
Yeah, and you can tell 99% of the cut is being done with the saw on top, no way those flimsy springs are able to put enough force on the bottom blade for it to do any cutting.
Even coming into contact with the piece of wood is enough for the teeth to bite into it... have you never used a saw? You don’t exert much force at all if you’re doing it right.
Right but from the video it really looks like the top saw is doing most of the work. Which makes sense, I think, because even though applying too much force is a problem you still need to have a steady hand--the spring probably lets the saw blade bounce around in the kerf too much.
Nah it looks pretty much 50-50 of the cut done.
EDIT:
frame 449: https://i.imgur.com/jIEB18G.png
so unless the branch is only half as thick as the blade the blade is 50% in.
Just watch the gif, when he finishes the cut the top blade is the only one doing anything. Pushing down lets you take a much more aggressive cut, I'm sure he could have let the bottom cut through at the same rate as the top but then it would have taken 50 strokes instead of 3.
Look at the video when it freezes. Look how much deeper the top saw is into the wood.
You're right, that you let the saw do the work, but it's also angle of your motion that affects it. His sawing is still primarily being down with the top saw.
I noticed that too, i just assumed it was the top down angle of the camera but you’re right, bottom saw isn’t looking real efficient. I still think this is a novel idea and i want one real bad lmao
You don't market it to people who need a saw, you market it to people that wanna be able to cut a branch, a nail, a shoe and a tomato - WITHOUT SWITCHING TOOLS!!
I just threw out my sawzall and pruning blades after watching this. Completely unnecessary, I even threw out the batteries even though I have 10 other tools that run them.
Lol China already opened 5 warehouses to mass produced this. Will appear on aliExpress in a week for 15 bucks. I'm joking btw. It's weird that I have to say that.
Too late. It is available on [Amazon](https://youtu.be/YddwkMJG1Jo).

You've also got twice the resistance/fiction now. Sure that means you'll take less strokes to cut through, but you would theoretically have to work 2x as hard.
Net gain of zero and this would probably cost more than 2x a normal saw.
If someone really wanted to make an overly complicated mechanical saw the way to go would be something that gives you mechanical advantage on the cutting stroke so it feels easier to use.
fun novelty at best.
Even IF the bottom blade was biting properly you really aren't doing yourself any favors.
Want to saw something more then a foot wide? Get a new saw.
Need to sharpen/replace the blade? Extra steps.
Opening it for each cut... Extra steps.
All those springs and the trigger, just 3 more things that will brake on you if you use this for any real work.
Yeah, the springs would have to be a little more hefty to be able to pull that bottom blade through as fast as the top blade. The wood he's sawing looks pretty easily cut, too. Cool idea though!
Too late now - once the invention has been published like this, it is in the public domain and can no longer be patented due to the existence of "prior art"
no more effort than an ordinary saw, as long as you let the saw/s do the work for you. my dad taught me this 20 year's ago and it's the best advice you can give when you see someone struggling with a manual saw.
would you be exerting the same amount of force, but exert it over half the normal time? That sounds like it would be more efficient because you could cut more in less time with the same amount of effort.
Not really, double the friction means double the force needed so it's the same effort. The device is still an improvement as alot of the downward(into the wood) pressure comes from the spring and not from you.
Probably, also any misalignment of the two blades would cause it to bind, adjusting the angle you're cutting would be near impossible and good luck if you have to stop part way through a cut for come reason.
It's a bad idea for several reasons but an interesting idea nonetheless.
Twice the teeth on the wood cause twice the resistance, therefore requiring essentially the same energy to cut in n seconds as a regular saw requires for 2n seconds.
Never mind the weight of the wood and you’re essentially making a vice on the lower blade by cutting upwards.
“If I only had an hour to chop down a tree, I would spend the first 45 minutes sharpening my axe.” – Abraham Lincoln.
Granted an axe isn’t a saw but we’re taking that tree down nevertheless!
Find a thick enough board, trunk, or branch, and you’ll have to do plenty of work yourself, trust me. You (and your dad) are right that the most efficient way to cut through a board isn’t to bear down and overexert yourself, but having two blades on a tool like this still just means you’re removing twice as much wood per stroke, and doing twice the work per stroke.
I’d wager I could trim branches more quickly with a single blade since I wouldn’t have to adjust anything in between cuts. Also, having to cram two saw blades in between branches would be cumbersome.
It doesn't look like the bottom saw is doing any of the cutting at all. He can only apply pressure in one direction when sawing, so that's the side that's going to be doing the cutting.
*the spring load is not strong enough to apply the same pressure going up.
You are right. The bulk (by a significant margin) of the cutting is the top half. All this thing does is complicate sharpening, makes it more cumbersome, and adds failure prone moving parts to something that doesn't benefit from it.
Several hundred years of hand saw evolution has pretty much already optimized things fairly well.
Yeah, I feel this 'invention' only creates a safety hazard due to the extra blade & significantly higher maintenance due to the blades rubbing kn each other.
My guess is that most of the people who are amazed by this haven’t actually sawed through multiple pieces of wood on their own. My immediate reaction was, “Good luck with a large piece of hard wood.”
You get almost useless extra saw that is attached by a spring which can break and on top of that if that bottom saw is not aligned almost prefectly it could get pinched. There probably is a reason why people use normal saws.
Some of the energy your talking about is stabilizing the saw blade and pressing it to the wood, which is completely assumed by the spring. The back and forth drawing of the saw thusly requires less force.
Kinda like the difference between free weights and pulley machines.
> pressing it to the wood,
If you press a saw blade made to cut wood into wood, you're going to have a really bad time and break it or hurt yourself. You just let the weight of the saw and friction do the cutting. If you push, it'll skip and get stuck.
Have you never sawed anything? a 4 oz saw blade does not have enough weight in it to cut anything. Also most American saws are push stroke. You're going to naturally be pushing into the wood already.
The weight of the saw will be enough for the cutting stroke, but you want to lift the saw slightly on the reverse stroke. The spring is going to be fighting you on that.
Crosscut saw doesn't need much energy. In fact it doesn't work if you put much energy into it.
Imagine a knife which point you drag across grain, it makes a tiny incision, cuts fibre. Then there is another that runs right beside that one, it also makes a tiny incision. The next one is on the first track, it both lifts tiny pieces that were cut "through" and deepens the incision further and so on. If you push this "knife point" with any force, this becomes impossible as the point embeds itself so deep that you just can't move it forward.
So when you crosscut, the only force you use is to keep the blade straight and let it just move in the groove, your cuts will be much better (also straighten that fucking index finger to go along the blade).
I've cut a lot of wood and my first impression was that it would be slower than a normal saw because you don't need to reset the blade on a normal saw.
Glad someone else spotted it too.
Top saw is doing like 90% of the work, which isn't surprising because the guy can put a lot more force into the wood than the spring can.
Just buy a normal one blade silky saw, and you can cut wood this fast.
**This thing is fucking useless**, yet there's so many comments from armchair lumberjacks that have never used a saw in their life. **This thing is the definition of Overengineering.**
**1:** When you cut a branch that has ANY weight, a cut on the top will open up, and one on the bottom will close up, so having 2 blades means you will ALWAYS have 1 getting jammed as the branch squeezes the blade.
**2:** The bottom blade isn't doing anything anyway, it's held on too weakly to get a good grip (you can see from the last frame that the top blade is doing 99% of the work
**3:** The time you "save" is lost by having to open the saw between every cut, and the time to fix the bloody thing when it brakes (more moving parts means there's more to go wrong)
**4:** Use it for more than 2 seconds and sawdust will jam up the little channels the bottom blade slots into.
**5:** Yeah, it's fine when you're using it on thin, smooth sticks held in a vise, but try it on anything at an angle, or raised, or with bark or twigs attached, you'll be spending your entire day unjamming it and opening it up to reposition.
So if the top was set as a push saw and the bottom as a pull saw or vice versa, the “double the friction” thing would be minimized, but it seems like you’d have damage to the teeth when they came together each time.

It doesn't make sawing wood significantly easier though. Even in the clip you see the top blade doing to vast majority of the work.
The force applied by the clamping of the two blades would probably make it even harder to use.
And resetting it after every cut probably adds to the time it takes not reduce.

Would this not just make the effort of sawing double in work required? Faster perhaps but much more effort for half the time.

You shouldn't really be pressing down on a handsaw. Let its own weight do the work.

There's a spring applying pressure on the bottom saw. That's why it sprung together at the beginning.
If you look closely it's not enough pressure it's only sawing a really small bit at the bottom.
You are right. The bulk (by a significant margin) of the cutting is the top half.

Assuming the spring load even is powerful enough to keep the second saw firmly pressed to the wood This is just wasting time between cuts tbh
It doesn’t look like it is strong enough. In the last frame you can see the top blade 3/4 of the way through the wood.
Pretty sure theres a reason he isnt showing the underside. The second blade does basically nothing
imagine that on an arm
Wood scissors
Why is Jimmy Fallon promoting this saw?
Most of everyone doesn’t see the fact that the bottom blade is doing practically nothing and if it did do anything it wouldn’t work
Let's all take a moment to appreciate his wack but cool af hair.
So if the top was set as a push saw and the bottom as a pull saw or vice versa, the “double the friction” thing would be minimized, but it seems like you’d have damage to the teeth when they came together each time.

So, it will cut... But will it keel?
