There's no such thing as an efficient "one blade for everything". If you're gonna cut wood OR bone, you need the tooth configuration for each task... I love my Silky saws, but I use solely for wood. If minimal sawing of small stuff is required (I carry this if I'm not backpacking in and setting up camp): https://www.farmandhomesupply.com/c...nNfSyK2vXkUwf79IxU1VfmjxLucIf0iBoCFzYQAvD_BwE

Another, not quite as nice as the Silky, but will get the job done: https://www.hooyman.com/saws/hand-saws/megabite-hunters-combo/110143.html#start=1

Silky, I use it for everything from skull capping to cutting wood and trimming limbs in archery season for Whitetails.

Carried the Wyoming collapsable saw for years. It’s like a collapsable hacksaw. It comes with two blades..one for wood and one for bone.

I like Silky saws…for cutting tree limbs only.

Someone was making a skeletonized titanium frame that fit silky blades.

For lightweight, any pull saw blade is going to be much thinner, and lighter than a push saw. I find a pull saw very efficient for cutting wood, but I’ve never cut a skull cap off with a pull saw. Anyone have comments on push vs pull for that use?
