Single buck is a traditional lumberjack technique used for cutting logs with a hand saw. This method involves a long, straight saw known as a single buck saw, which has a single blade and is operated by two people. One person pulls the saw while the other pushes, allowing for efficient cutting of large timber. The single buck technique is often showcased in lumberjack competitions, where participants demonstrate their skills in various woodcutting events. This practice highlights the importance of teamwork and coordination, as both sawyers must work in harmony to achieve a clean cut. Competitions often feature other events, such as log rolling and axe throwing.
