Whoops sorry about that but there`s no doubt in my mind that you could make a dandy. :)

I remember many buck and bow saws selling on my great-grandpa's auction, along with loads of other things I would have kept!

Now having 2 kids and one on the way, we have to take a lot of extra "junk" fishing and camping, so I just bought a new space-saving, 21 inch bow-saw made in Duluth, MN with a Swedish made blade... The "Sven Saw"

Here it is opened up. The A-frame shape doesn't give you the longest stroke on bigger pieces, but it works well enough for campfire wood and weighs less than a pound.
