  What is a Ripsaw?
The American-designed ripsaw is created to cut when the saw is being pushed through the wood, which is called the push stroke.
A ripsaw is made with a metal blade and blade holder.
Since the ripsaw is made of metal, it should be stored in an area that is free from excessive moisture in order to prevent rusting.

  Yield Improvement in Manual Ripsaw Operations
As the ripsaw operation is the major defecting process in a crosscut-first rough mill, the volume of wood loss (some may be usable but is wasted) is greater than elsewhere in the rough mill.
This may be done by the ripsaw operator to insure that the parts are wide enough to meet the moulder requirements and thus avoid a shortage caused by parts that are too narrow.
Operators of ripsaws that are coupled directly to the crosscut saws will often spend time and effort retrieving board sections from a belt feed or a jumbled pile at the base of a gravity slide.

 AAN’S Smallest Paper Publishes in Rock 'n' Roll Time | Association of Alternative Newsweeklies
The acerbic Ripsaw -- named after a Duluth paper published in the roaring 20’s by a man whose goal was “to rip them [politicians] open and see whether they are sound or rotten” -- quickly made its mark as pro-Duluth but anti-establishment.
Ripsaw began with a two-person staff and a lot of volunteers, but has since gone weekly and hired a handful of staffers.
The passion was evident to members of AAN’s Admissions Committee, which in 2001 called Ripsaw, “Witty, eloquent, and full of spark!” The committee also noted that the paper was “(n)ot without its faults, but clearly (in terms of bang for limited buck) this year’s single best applicant.

A heavily themed traditional log flume, Ripsaw Falls features very bright colors, very sharp angles, and odd geometric shapes both inside the ride and in its impossibly unreal external view laden with buildings that should have, by all rights, collapsed years ago.
Ripsaw Falls features two smaller drops before the final steep drop and they're all tied to the chase theme very well.
Ripsaw Falls is perfectly themed and a true delight to walk around, look at, and ride through.

 Ripsaw or Hacksaw? - AMSNOW.com Forums
I live in Iowa, we run the rivers here when we can and travel to MN and WI to trail ride.
I think the studded hacksaw would be the best for the river, but I keep thinking it would be nice to have a 1.25" for those few times we get a big snow or happen to be up north and get a big storm.
I put a new hacksaw track on my xc 600 last year worked great got it predrilled, also had good hook up and good feel in the turns good bracking, we did not have alot of snow here last year and only had (1) problem with hyfax melt so I think it worked well.
