It is safe to assume that most of you, if not all, are handy and have a decent collection of tools. So, this is a quick note if you are planning to buy a hand saw in the near future. The saw handle of many recent models has a square shape, with 90 and 45 angles. So, you can use the saw handle if your square isn't around

I'll post a picture of a random model that has this feature.

Silky are great. But my point is the handle design.
It features and edge at 90 degrees, and another at 45 degrees.
So, you can use the saw handle and saw spine as a square.

Yeah, I didn't mean that as a criticism, more like "I need to have tools for more than just camping." grin
