folding saw?

I was looking at the silky, they have several teeth (fine, medium, coarse etc...). For "live" wood which would be the most versatile?
 
I have the Silky PB170 and it is a high quality and very handy tool. I did snap the last inch off the blade but it was my fault. IIRC someone on here was making a good case for one of the Silkys that is a little bit bigger because it had a better thicker blade but I don't remember the details.

The scientific consensus is that the larger teeth work better for green wood and smaller teeth are more suited for seasoned wood.
 
I have a Gerber folding pocket saw that I've used for years. Picked up a Norlund Guide Saw that folds up the other day at the Salvation Army. Never saw one of those. I have made a few buck saws that work great for primitive camping events.
