I have a few trees that need some work and would like to buy a very nice pruning saw that will last and get the job done. It can be a long handle or just a short one. Thanks for the input. Larry

I have used the Fanno for many years and just last year in a yard sale got a new one, then In a drawing got a silky and that is even better. Good products, no BS.......jk Free people are not equal.
