I really enjoyed the video. I'm gonna check out the guys KZfaq channel. It brought back some memories. When I went to work for the electric utility company we had a crosscut saw on our line truck. Sometimes we used it to cut old poles after we replaced them with a new pole. One thing you learn pretty quick when you're cutting is to pull the saw & not push. Let your partner pull it back after you've made your pull cut.

Nice video, though you need to add a champion and a one man saw in for context. I find that a lot of east coast crews love the 325 for bucking and lightness of carry and it performs well in hardwood. Seems to hit a crosscut sweet spot and you can wedge in behind it sooner.

This video was more focused on the two man saws out here west. Champion saws aren't too common in my neck of the woods (North Idaho) because we have very little hardwood to worry about. And the hardwoods we do have aren't truly "hard" like oak or maple, we only have stuff like cottonwood, alder, and birch to contend with (and in very small amounts at that). The logging industry here was focused on white pine before it shifted to spruce, fir, and cedar, so lance and perforated lance saws are all I find. And since I tend to only cut pine, spruce, and fur it works out . Thanks for watching

I'm in northern Michigan which is mostly softer woods, but almost all the saws I find are Champion or Tuttle tooth. I think it's was a holdover from the logging era when a lot of frozen pine was cut in the winter. @@HabeasJ
