FAQs
What types of wood can this saw cut?
The Highlander Wolverine Folding Saw is effective for cutting both green (living) and dead wood. It is best suited for branches and smaller pieces of wood.
How do I ensure the saw is safe to use?
Always ensure the blade is fully locked into the open position before you begin cutting. When finished, carefully disengage the lock and fold the blade completely into the handle before storing.
What are the folded dimensions of the saw?
The packed size of the saw is approximately 22.5cm x 6.5cm x 2cm, making it very compact for carrying.
Is the blade replaceable?
While the product information does not specify blade replaceability, standard practice for folding saws suggests it may not be designed for easy user replacement. However, cleaning and sharpening can extend its lifespan.
What is the weight of the saw?
The Highlander Wolverine Folding Saw weighs 0.1850kg, making it a lightweight addition to your gear.
How should I clean the saw?
Wipe the blade clean with a dry cloth after each use. For tougher dirt, use a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. A light oil can prevent rust on the steel blade.
Troubleshooting
Blade does not lock securely when open
Ensure the blade is fully extended and the locking mechanism has clicked into place. Inspect the locking mechanism for debris and clean if necessary. If damage is suspected, discontinue use.
Saw feels stiff to fold or unfold
Check for any obstructions or debris in the pivot area. A small amount of lubricant designed for tools can help, but avoid over-lubrication. Ensure you are properly disengaging the lock before folding.
Cutting performance seems reduced
The blade may require sharpening or cleaning. Remove any sap or resin buildup. For dullness, consider professional sharpening or blade replacement if feasible.
Handle feels slippery
Ensure the handle is dry. The rubberised grip is designed for better traction, but excessive moisture can still reduce grip. Dry thoroughly after use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Highlander Wolverine Folding Saw requires no assembly. To use, simply unfold the blade until it locks into the open position. Ensure the lock is fully engaged before cutting. To close, disengage the locking mechanism (refer to the specific locking mechanism type if known, e.g., a button or lever) and carefully fold the blade into the handle.
Compatibility: This saw is primarily designed for cutting wood. It is compatible with most standard pocket and rucksack sizes due to its folded dimensions.
Care: After each use, clean the blade with a dry cloth to remove sap and debris. For tougher residue, use a damp cloth and dry immediately. Occasionally, a light application of oil can prevent rust on the steel blade. Store the saw in a dry place with the blade securely locked in the closed position. Avoid exposing the saw to prolonged moisture or harsh chemicals.
