A SMALL, OUTDOOR SPECIALIST RETAILER, OWNED BY A PROFESSIONAL PRODUCT TESTER
This Kombat UK military wire saw is exactly what you need in any serious survival kit. Ultra-lightweight and incredibly compact, it takes up virtually no space but gives you cutting capability when you need it most. At £2.57, it's one of those no-brainer additions that could genuinely make the difference in an emergency situation.
Wire saws are a staple of survival kits for good reason - they can cut through materials that would be impossible with other compact tools. Wood for shelter building, plastic for repairs, even soft metals in emergency situations. When you're trying to build an emergency shelter or construct a trap, this wire saw will cut through branches and materials that would take ages with a knife alone.
This is where wire saws really shine - they weigh almost nothing and take up no space in your kit. You can coil this up and it'll fit in your pocket, but when you need it, you've got a proper cutting tool. Perfect for ultralight hiking where every gram counts, or for emergency kits where space is at a premium.
Don't think this is just for wood - wire saws are surprisingly versatile. Cut branches for shelter construction, slice through rope or cordage, even cut plastic containers or soft metals in emergency repairs. The flexible wire gets into spaces where rigid saws can't reach, making it perfect for detailed bushcraft work or emergency modifications.
Built to military specifications, this wire saw is designed to work when you need it most. The wire is tough enough to handle serious cutting tasks but flexible enough to coil up small. It's the kind of tool that sits in your kit doing nothing for months, then becomes invaluable when you actually need to cut something in the field.

Wood branches up to several inches thick, plastic, rope, cordage, and even soft metals. It's surprisingly versatile for such a simple tool.
Use a back-and-forth sawing motion with steady pressure. The key is to let the wire do the work rather than forcing it.
Different tools for different jobs - wire saws are much lighter and more compact, while folding saws cut faster. Many people carry both.
With proper use, a quality wire saw like this can last for years. The wire is designed to handle significant cutting tasks before wearing out.
