Will this be able to sharpen a folding saw blade, or for that matter, any handsaw? Also, how about the teeth on a 5/32",(4mm) "pocket chainsaw?

Not so good for that. I would have to see your saw blade to answer properly but I have my doubts. As for the 4mm chainsaw, the "round file" part is tapered too much and would distort the chain .... to my thinking. I am sure it would help out in a pinch for just one time or so but it is not designed for chain saws.

Not for sharpening saw blades at all. You can only sharpen straight blades well. The sharpening tool for the serrated edged of a blade (round part)only does a fair job as a touch up sharpening tool. CRAB

No. This sharpener is designed mainly for knife blades. The foldable rod is for curved serrations in blades. For a saw there are others small flat sharpeners .

what I know is that the blades for jigsaw are different in the holding style then the reciprocating or sawzall which this is designed for, so you may try it but I don't think it will work???

I doubt that the blade is optimal for that. You probably want smaller teeth with less "set" and I think they are set in a zigzag or S curve pattern as on a hacksaw. Maybe look at the 2 in. Bench Top Cut-Off Saw from Harbor Freight, Item #42307. It will cut 3/4" diameter tubing.

My chain has not yet gotten dull enough to have to sharpen it. There is a chainsaw sharpening tool made by Timberline that is somewhat expensive at $124.95 (http://timberlinesharpener.com/). It looks to be very easy to operate and seems to do an expert job even by a novice. It would be totally up to the consumer as to whether or not you would benefit by purchasing this tool or simply purchasing a new chain every time it gets dull. The timberline sharpener would pay for itself after purchasing 10 -- 10" chains. Less if you sharpen larger chains. You might also want to consider that this sharpener would sharpen all size chains with the purchase of different size carbide cutters in case you purchase other chain saws in the future. Hope this helps.

yes, i use this saw for precision cuts to make segmented turnings. I removed a 7.25" and replaced it with a 96 tooth 7 inch. Cuts are like glassDan

The sharpener fits the chain not the saw. I'm running a 20 inch chain on mine that's listed in the recommended links so chances are high it does.

No, unfortunetly. It will work on anything with a straight blade (hand pruners, pruning shears, old fashioned hand hedge trimmers, and even a knife) but it is not intended to sharpen anything with a serrated edge (example-any sort of saw with teeth)

It will sharpen any edge. Just use it as instructed. Use a smooth stroke for 5-6 times in one direction, then smooth stoke in the other direction. I have used it to sharpen shovels, blades, scissors,etc... It's been years since I've had a paper cutter. But if I remember correctly the blade is flat on the bottom and looses it's sharpness on that and the flat surface facing the board. Swipe the flat surface facing the cutting metal and the bottom surface, too. You will notice the difference immediately.

It is not 4" on my block. It is 3-15/16" which is about 1/32" too narrow for my cleaver. After some sharpening it should work.

If you're serious about this excursion, get a real knife. I love my Leatherman, but it's not very useful in the wilderness. The saw takes forever to go through a 1-inch stick and the knife can't be batoned so if you were planing on using it for anything like that, look elsewhere. Although I do recommend having a multitool at all times because you never know when it's gonna come in handy.

If you're talking about using a hole saw, it could do it with the bigger battery, barely. The small batt. it comes with might run out of juice. If you're talking about pine. Oak, maybe not. The saw in either case would have to be as sharp as possible (new). I guess you already know that using a hole saw that big in a hand drill is iffy at best. If you are cutting it freehand, it'll do it effortlessly with a good blade.

Should work just fine. I would use the American stone for that knife. I have used it on my folding knives.

Hey Jorge, if you are looking for a small sharpener to carry in your pocket to sharpen anything on the fly with then this is it, I've sharpened Axe"s, Hatchets, Knives and also fishing blades with this little gem... to answer your question YES.. it will sharpen just about anything, I would recommend putting the Machetes between your knee's with the handle hitting your stomach, then sharpen with a forward motion away from you, use course side first then the fine ceramic side.. also look at Smith's 50447 4-Inch Diamond Sharpening Stone, it run's about $10.00, by using these two products together you will be able to just about sharpen anything to hold a good blade. Well I hope I was of some help with this product... :-)

Yes, that this close to the upper limit of what it can cut. With 4 inch or smaller trees, you should have no problems. The tool is very safe; much safer than a regular chain saw.

It can do a small branch, say 3/4 of an inch up to 3 or 4 inches in diameter. I have cut 5 in trunks with it, but you are there awhile. It might cut a bigger one. But you would be using up your blade; when a bigger saw would be better for the job. I like to save this one for all my smaller branches so it stays sharp longer. I don't have anyway at home to sharpen the offset razor teeth on this saw. Hope this is helpful.

I ue the blade on an old Rockwell saw, I set up to make boxes on and it works great. If the Dewalt if for a 5/8" x 8" it should work.
