that kind of saw is called a misery whip.
it's used horizontally. it's awful enough that way, but to imagine that you're cutting upward is just impossible. I've explained that I understand it's just a scarf. my bad. it's not upside down in my eyes, the blood's upside down. don't worry. its all me. sorry.

but given the cut is horizontal and the scarf is worn veritcally, it can be worn to imply blood dripping down from a horizontal cut.. You're just being an unimaginative dickhead. But there really is no need to apologize for that.

It's only used horizontally when cutting down trees. It's used vertically when cutting that tree into boards.

I think this line's mostly filler.

And when wrapped around the neck, it goes blade-up, so the blood is flowing down.

I've gotta agree with BigV on this.
The only way to get the pattern shown here is to use the saw upside down in a crosscut mode, and that would be very awkward to do, physically. Edit: But it is visually more appealing this way, than if it was done in a realistic way. |

ZenGum:
Thank you for the valiant defense; You sawdust-up, and responded. Though your instincts are correct, your vocabulary is wrong. That's not needling. That's a poke. She saw what I wrote, and tried to cut me with her reply, but have no fear, the harm is offset because her words have no teeth. But please continue to spin a yarn of puns; you're sharp and I'd love to see you rip out a few more about this dumb ol' skerf.

BigV:
Mighty fine work there sir! I'm still worried about a saw called a "misery whip"... so many questions ...

That's funny....because I usually get hurt the most when sharp objects are running the wrong direction....not the right one.....!!
Not usually when I'm sewing....when I'm cutting vegetables. Or chopping firewood... lol!!!

Ok ... and, "whip"? I guess it is flexible, but still, "misery whip" sounds so suggestive, I think it should go in the band names thread.

Yeah. Misery. Look at this dude, and then imagine that instead of doing this for a couple minutes at a competition, you are doing this all day long, every day.
Edit: Actually, I don't have a point. I just wanted to post a picture I found earlier today. |
