Anyone have a preference/guidance on a quality bone saw for processing wild game? The kind a butcher uses to skullcap a deer at the processor in 2 or 3 swipes.
Brand/size/blade type?
Thanks!

Thanks Jim P that Southern Indiana Butcher supply link is just what I've been looking for.You used to be able to go down to the local hardware store and pick up a nice bone saw, but I haven't seen one in a hardware store in years. The one that I use is close to 50 years old and has a 25" blade. If you have a butcher shop in your area go down and talk to the butcher and see where he gets his at. If you don't then you can find them on line. I have bought a few things from Southern Indiana Butcher Supply and their saws look quite good.
The other question is just what are you going to butcher? Deer and elk can be handled with a 18" saw instead of a large 25" one. If you want a portable one I would recommend the Wyoming Saw 2. I have one and just leave it on my 4 wheeler just in case I need a bone or wood saw while I am out playing around and have used it quite a few times and the bone blade is quite nice but I use it for the wood cutting blade the most.
I've been using a Wyoming Saw for 25 years or more. SS blades, works great. It breaks down and has a case so I can take it out in the field. Wouldn't trade it for anything.As others have said, if you want portability, I've always liked my Wyoming Saw with the bone blade. It has worked great. Sounds like you would want to longer version of the two sizes they offer. If looking for something at home or in camp, then I would reach out to LEM Products. I would probably go their 22" saw. They offer great products at a good price. http://www.lemproducts.com
