Description

A saw, good for creating and sawing planks.

Your basic metal saw. Used to make planks out of logs, kindling out of wood scrap, chop down trees and cut felled trees into logs.

The saw given with the starter set cannot be improved, but unlike most of the other starter tools it is not made of birchwood so will not be destroyed by fire.
The saw and hatchet are the only tool that gives tool skill above 20 when cutting down trees with it. Other tool and weapon skills cannot be improved this way beyond 20; after that using them for cutting wood only gives woodcutting skill.
