The Pocket Chainsaw and axe require two hands, a folding saw only one. A saw can limb and cut fire wood. A fixed blade knife can split wood. An axe or hatchet weighs a lot more than a Gerber Sportsman's Saw. I carry the Sportsman's saw in my Camelbak when hiking and in my back pocket when I am using it. It is fast and easy to cut the wood I need and I can do it one-handed.
My vote is for a Leatherman Charge Ti or Wave, a Gerber Sportsman's Saw and a good fixed blade knife. I keep the Charge Ti in my pocket and the others in my Camelbak.
