Bought our Christmas tree this morning at the local Home Depot. Found a nice noble fir tree that was about six feet tall. I got it home and decided that I was going to take care of cleaning the excess needles and removing some of the lower branches downstairs of my apartment building before lugging it upstairs. I didn't want to walk up and get my hand saw in the apartment and then realized I had a small saw right on my belt - on my SwissTool Spirit. I start removing the netting off the tree then started cutting the smaller branches on the bottom of the tree. The saw quickly cut through the branches. I gave the tree a few taps on the sidewalk and I was ready to armstrong the tree into the apartment. My wife was happy also because I didn't track too much loose needles into the apartment and the tree was ready to mount in the stand when I came into the apartment
