Rescue Saw??

[Freightrain]

Hi
I was wondering what kind of Rescue saws all of you are using???
Primarily for cutting into roofs for Ventalation or where ever needed.
We are looking to buy a new one and need some choices.
Thanks

WE USE A CORDLESS 24V DEWALT WITH A SERIES OF SPECIALTY BLADES--GOOD FOR MVA WORK ALSO,TAKE CARE

we use a husqavarna gas powerd cutoff saw. with special blades our dealer rep got for us. we just used it the other night to cut right through a garge door to gain access since the power door wouldnt work due to fire inside. worked pretty nice. we also use that tool for cutting in a roof for venting. we are plaesed with our saw.

We use the same as bcfire. 24 volt DeWalt. As long as someone rotates the battery's monthly it is a great unit. I'm pretty sure that you can get a AC attachment for it in case your battery's run low on juice.

we use a gas powered K 12 saw as well as a chain saw with a roof gaurd to prevent cutting to deep. an axe and a recip.saw are what we have in waiting the we can use if there is a problem with the first plan . remember a good plan is a backup plan and a bad plan is no plan !

We use an ECHO QUICKVENT with a 12" drop blade (angled down about 15* with a bullit chain, expensive but worth every penny. We also have a STIHL k12 saw with metal , concrete and a very agressive wood cutting blade.

we just bought a new stihl chain saw with a depth bar to cut a various depths. havent used it though yet.

K 2, Husky Chain saws, Recip, What ever works best (Starts) at the time. K2 is a finiky bugger. Look at it wrong and it won't start.

WE use a Quick Vent with drop down blade, K 12 with blades for steel, concrete, and wood. Also have conventional chain saw as well as a cordless recipricating saw for vent , also use this at MVA,s.

We use a Stihl rotary saw with the D'AX blade on it. It will cut just about anything.

We use the trusty old K12. Axes as stand by's or for smaller cuts...

[Buckster]

husky chainsaw with depth gauge, axe to finish it off

[mutts252]

Stihl TS400 gas-powered rotary saw with either a masonry or steel-cutting blade, depending on what you want to do... also the trusty ol' chainsaw.

[mutts252]

oh yeah... and axes, too. :p
