[at-l] Trail Maintainance Question - Need Saw

[shellydhale at earthlink.net (Shelly Hale)]

What about a Commando Wire Saw?  I have one in my pack for those situations
where I might have to cut my own arm off to get out from a boulder or other
such emergencies.  (Darn pocket knives just don't seem to do the trick...)
They're really light weight, coil up into a scant inch of space, and has 48
kilo breaking strain.
