Arrow Cutting

I'm looking to buy an arrow saw. Any advice on which brand has both affordability and perfomance in one package. This is the one that has my eye. Any thoughs?

 

Most arrow saws will be just fine at either speed 5000rpm or 8000rpm. I would shop around. They are a lot less expensive than the one at cabela's.

Look here for instance.

 

And, though Cabela's is a bit more expensive typically, check their Bargain Cave has sometimes you'll run across a good one for sale in there just as cheap as anywhere. The one we have came from http://www.sportsmansguide.com/ It's a 5000rpm Apple and we got it for right around $100.00 it it works great for carbon arrows and cuts through them like a hot knife through butter. Apparently if you're going to be cutting tons and tons of arrows or aluminums you may want to step up to the 8000rpm.

 

Thanks!

 

This one is $89.95 ('club price') and claims 8000 rpm:

I appreciate all of the input. I'm still probably a few weeks out from the purchase just wanted some advice so I could begin the internet shopping for it.

 

Probably a dumb question but I've always thought arrow cutting saws used carbon blades?

 

Silicon Carbide.

Silicon carbide (SiC, and also called carborundum) is a compound of silicon and carbon. It is most familiar as a synthetic compound that is widely used as an abrasive, but it also occurs in nature as the extremely rare mineral moissanite. Grains of silicon carbide may be bonded together by sintering to form very hard ceramics.

 

If you're still interested in purchasing that Apple Pro-Saw we carry it in our store and I can match Cabela's price for registered members.

This is the saw we use here at our office and it works great.

 

Justin I am still interested. I haven't purchased it yet. I'm going to try to purchase it within the month. I'm trying to save up to get it and the Blitz at the same time. If you guys are carrying it then I'll buy it from you guys.
