I never understood the love for sawblades on MTs. I don't own any MTs with saw blades and can honestly say I never wished for one.


I use my MT pliers constantly in urban/suburban environments and pretty regularly while hiking and camping. Sometimes the best way to fix a piece of gear is with pliers.

With regard to the saw, it's been handy lots of times for solving branch and stick issues. I wouldn't want to be without it in the woods.
