took down three small but very tall trees - thinning and collect specific sizes trees for a cutting frame project for later.
used a bow saw, and a husqvarna synthetic axe (massive head on that) for the final stroke, and a husqvarna wood handled carpenters number to limb with. snicker snack. got it done before the sun set, all branches off, stacked, and ready to chip up later.
if i had used a knife, i might have cleared one tree, but i'd probably have done the final limbing in the dark. less to carry out in terms of tools, but ...
the bow saw had the hard wood blade on, wood have been faster with a green blade, or the buck saw, but i had to test it out
