Why Choose the Firefly Saw?

When choosing the best survival saw, portability and function are essential. The Firefly Saw provides aggressive cutting power for small branches, cordage, and other materials in a slim format that disappears into your wallet. Whether you're creating shelter, gathering fuel, or clearing trail, this EDC saw gives you the functionality of a much larger tool—without the bulk.

How the Firefly Saw Works

The Firefly Saw features ultra-sharp saw teeth precision-ground into high carbon steel, optimized for maximum bite and pull-through cutting. The chisel-style teeth are effective on dry or green wood, plastics, and rope.

Just slide the glow-in-the-dark silicone wrap to the side to access the hidden ferrocerium rod, strike it with the saw spine, and start a fire in seconds. The wrap also provides better grip and visibility in low-light conditions.
