La scie à bûches est une scie à monture de grande dimension (60 à 90 cm); elle diffère cependant des autres scies montées en ce que l'un des bras est plus long que l'autre, et tient lieu de poignée. Ses dents triangulaires symétriques travaillent dans les deux sens. C'est une scie de travers très robuste qu'on utilise surtout pour le tronçonnage (logging) et la coupe de bois de chauffage. 1, record 3, French, - scie%20%C3%A0%20b%C3%BBches
