    I have one blade that I found somewhere that I’ve been using for cutting branches for years. Maybe it’s time for a new one :laughing:

    True story - no one will ever want to bust out their hi lift and actually use it on a trail. They are a pain and dangerous and heavy and yes of course they have their place, but IMO… buy one of these for $40 at harbor freight and throw it under the back seat and move on with your life.
