Klein Tools 5508 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Klein Tools 5508 tool guard actually for?
The 5508 is a protective sheath for a cable saw, not a cutting tool itself. It covers the saw's edge so the blade doesn't chew up the inside of a tool pouch or catch a hand reaching in. It's part of Klein's guard line for edged tools, so the saw it protects is sold separately.
2) Does the Klein Tools 5508 come with a cable saw included?
No. The 5508 is the guard only, a cable-saw sheath. If you need the saw as well, order it separately; this part number buys the hard fiber guard with its straps and rivets.
3) What is the Klein 5508 cable saw guard made of, and will it hold up in a tool pouch?
It's built from 1/16 inch (2 mm) vulcanized hard fiber with riveted construction. Hard fiber takes abrasion from a saw edge without splitting the way a molded plastic sleeve can, and the rivets mean the seams aren't relying on glue or stitching in a bag that gets dropped daily.
4) How does the Klein 5508 guard stay on the cable saw?
Adjustable web straps hold the tool inside the guard. Because the straps adjust rather than being fixed, you can snug them to the saw so it doesn't slide out when the pouch tips, and loosen them to pull the saw free one-handed.
5) Can I use the Klein 5508 guard on a utility knife or linesman's skinning knife instead of a cable saw?
The 5508 is cut and strapped for a cable saw specifically. Klein builds guards across its edged tool range, so for a knife you want the guard matched to that blade rather than forcing a saw guard onto it. A guard that doesn't fit the tool lets the edge work its way past the fiber.
6) Is there more than one version or size of the Klein 5508 tool guard to specify when ordering?
Just the one. The 5508 is a single configuration, manufacturer part number 5508, so there's no size, hand, or finish to pick on the order.
