  • This technique uses a vertical strip of wood fibers in the middle of the log in order to keep the log from splitting and reduce the chance of the bar getting pinched

    I watched this with great interest a couple of times, and I'm always amazed at how much knowledge/skill/experience this guy's got to share with the world. He's one of America's living treasures for sure.

    Nice! Mr. Murphy makes it look easy.
    I would term this cut an advanced cut and caution folks practicing it.
    Hold the saw securely with both hands, not only is technique important but , saw condition, the saw has to be properly maintained. A saw must be operated humbly or the saw will humble you.
    Not to the pro as much as to the hobbiest or beginner, be careful.
    What a great cut, done with precision, like a martial artist in a throw , if not properly done can get hurt..
    Beautiful system, Saw , Man, Tree , bucket. At one.. ExPerience!
    Sensai (Master) Thank You.

    That was very cool! I love when skilled pros share great tips and techniques that are very useful in real world situations. Great job man! I will be trying that technique soon but I know it's gonna take some time to perfect.

    Thanks for the video.
    I haven't had any luck selling my timber considering the storm that we had and much of it is damaged, so I am going to fell the trees myself and buck up the logs as best I can and eventually cut a deal with someone to help me get my logs to the sawmill.
    Someone offered me 15 cent per board foot on my large undamaged white pines.
    I turned him down I don't think that's a fair rate at all.

    What saw was that

    What size saw is this in the video? I have a 20” Echo and I’m having a ton of trouble getting through logs of that size. Does my technique just suck or am I missing out on a nice chain. The chain I have on there is the stock echo chain that came with the saw.

      How old is the chain, and have you sharpened it?
