Best Replacement for a WRT54G : gadgets. Pre- Post Apocalyptic Survival. Gerber 31-000751 Bear Grylls Survival Series Ultimate Knife, Serrated Edge: Home Improvement. Topeak Joe Blow Sport II Floor Pump: Sports & Outdoors. Sven Saw. The Sven Saw is an ideal camping saw. I grew up watching my Dad use one to make short work of the tree limbs I dragged through the woods to the campsite. Now I take mine on every backpacking trip. It makes gathering firewood easier, because you don't have to search for logs you can break or hack through.

Larger logs left by others or downed trees that you'd never be able to hack down or break are fair game. I leave my hatchet at home, because this saw is so efficient and well-designed. [Note: While similar to the previously reviewed ultra-portable Fiskars Pruning Saw, the slightly less packable Sven comes with a significantly longer blade capable of tackling larger logs at the cost of added weight and size. -- OH] --Greg Schneider Sven Saw $30 Available from REIComment on this tool at Cool Tools.
