I like even better at a flea market a couple of years ago. It is a handle that a sawzall blade will snap into and the handle pivots so it can be used straight like the saw shown or at 90 degrees for a pistol grip like saw. Added advantage is all the types of blades available for sawzall.

Oh...., yeah. Pretty sure that's the Bad boy RJCarazza mentioned, post before yours. Got one of those in my kit, too! (See below pic).
Between the two of these saws I could build a house, beginning with harvesting the trees myself!
If I had to.
Assuming I'd lost my credit card or the world was otherwise coming to an end or something. ;)

Pretty much, didn't see RJCarazza post, (I should remember to hit refresh before I post) mine is a little different, probably a knockoff no brand.

Never mind. Stupid reply from an old geezer.

Been meaning to get me one of those. My son has one from Milwaukee and uses it all the time.

When I clicked on the link, my anti virus program went crazy deleting stuff that tried to download.

I had to cut a bolt flush the other day and couldn't find mine. I finally gave up and just used a spare blade and a glove. It actually worked quite well.

Well, I for one must be computer illiterate, because I never saw a hacksaw on that web site. If the above photo is what the thread is about, those have been around for years and decades! Its not a new invention, maybe there's just renewed interest in them. Just went out to my garage and sure enough, there it was hanging on my peg-board. Blade rusty from lack of use, but still in good shape! It's a "Stanley". I had this little tool as long as I can possibly remember, and I'm almost 60 years old now. But because it's got a plastic handle, it's probably manufactured in the last 1970's. That's about the same time I started accumulating my own tools.

I have one just like yours and have also had it for years. I still use it often but found one I like even better at a flea market a couple of years ago. It is a handle that a sawzall blade will snap into and the handle pivots so it can be used straight like the saw shown or at 90 degrees for a pistol grip like saw.

I have one of these also. Another similar tool I used a lot in my job is a folding blade holder that accepts Milwakee (sp) style blades.

Had one in my tool box in the garage and use it a lot. Never thought of getting one for the trailer, but that will be changing.
