This is a replica of the chainsaw seen throughout 'Evil Dead II', wherever you see the saw being worn. In addition its used in the scene where Ash cuts off his hand, and in parts of the scene in which Ash is attacked by Linda's headless corpse. (albeit minus the wristband) The 20" guide bar shown here matches that of the original saw, although you can select a different length of guide bar upon placing your order. You can click to enlarge the pictures below.
This chainsaw is a non-working prop and contains no moving parts. Inside it has a handle running from the the left to right sides, and can be held either left or right handed.
Each chainsaw is manufactured from scratch. The body, black handle, muffler & lids are all reproduced in an impact resistant heavy duty polyurethane plastic resin using moulds taken from modified parts of an original Homelite XL.
Where possible the metalwork is aluminium to reduce the weight. A real chainsaw guide bar, chain and sprocket are used to complete the exterior shell.
Virtually all of this chainsaw has been bolted & screwed together as opposed to being glued. This makes it much stronger and allows for the saw to be completely dismantled. It's made of around 84 separate parts, from the guide bar & chain down to each nut & bolt.
The pull-start is fixed and doesn't retract.
The visible portion of the engine block has also been moulded, so from the exterior it looks identical to an original 'Homelite XL' chainsaw. Its cast in a strong resin, which easily allows it to take the weight of the chain & guide bar.

The handle on the inside of the saw is located 5" in from the wristband, and is about level with the centre of the lid handle.
The standard finish on this saw is a clotted dried blood effect which is permanent and won't rub off, and all the wood is stained & varnished. you may also have this saw with the dirty oil finish as per the 'Workshed Chainsaw', or the dusty weathered blood finish as per the 'Medieval Chainsaw'.
The metal guide bar & chain are chemically treated to give them an aged look, then given a clotted dried blood finish
Chainsaws can be supplied with either a normal or ground chain. For that I grind the teeth flat, making it safer.

As you can see from the above photo, The metal clamp used as the wristband has an insert made of plastic to protect your hand & wrist from the clamps metal edges. The wristband has been fixed as large as is possible while keeping to the original design, and is not adjustable. If you have very large hands it may be a little tight to get your hand through. The interior diameter of the wristband is 85mm or 3-3/8".
The overall length with a 20" guide bar is 765mm or 30", and the total weight is just 3.2kg or 7lb.
