There is nothing special about this saw, other than that it is a plain, woodsman's saw, which by the hand of your executioner will bring restitution for your crimes. Because you will be hung by your ankles and allowed to remain in such a state for some time before your trial begins, blood will supply plenty of oxygen to your brain, and begin to pool in the upper portion of your body. This is important, for as the blade is placed between your legs and the sawing begins, very little blood will be lost. You will remain alive and fully aware as the saw is drawn slowly downward, each stroke bringing it slowly through your genetalia, the pelvic bone, and finally into your abdomen. There is no cause for rejoice as an early death is quite unlikely. Many of you will remain alive until the blade's teeth reach your navel, and some will even endure until the chest cavity is split open.
