This is a replica of the chainsaw seen throughout 'Army Of Darkness', wherever you see the saw being worn. The exact design of the saw varies from scene to scene (and in some places, shot to shot) so this replica is somewhat of an amalgamation of the various designs. 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 lid to the base, 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 the dusty weathered 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 'clotted dried blood finish' as per the 'Cabin Chainsaw.'
The guide bar is stripped of paint then the bar & chain are treated to give them an aged, and weathered look.
Chainsaws can be supplied with either a normal or ground chain. For that I grind the teeth flat, making it safer.

The wristband has been fixed as large as possible while keeping to the original design, and is not adjustable. It has the largest wristband of all three chainsaws, with an interior diameter of 79mm tall by 89mm wide (or 3⅛" by 3½").
The overall length with a 20" guide bar is 775mm or 30", and the total weight is just 3.2kg or 7lb.
