How would this compare to the Corona RS 10" folding pruning saw?

Apples and oranges. The Corona 10" is excellent, cuts great, it's 3" longer than the 7" (not 9") Bahco blade, and it's curved which is a big advantage cutting curved logs/branches. It's also a little longer and a little heavier (9.5 oz). If you're serious enough about cutting wood to justify carrying a little larger saw, or you are car camping/biking/kayaking and weight is just not crucial, bring the Corona 10". If a slightly lighter and smaller saw are more important to you then the Bahco has the advantage. Either will cut great. For home firewood/landscaping use, get the largest/longest saw that's comfortable. Corona also makes a 14" version and Fiskars makes a great 13" lightweight wood saw. For backpacking and hiking the Bahco would be the more compact choice.

Can you replace the blade on this unit?

Yes, you can replace the blade in this saw. The Bahco blade is held in to the handle with a large Philips screw on the locking button side, and a locking nut in a captive slot on the reverse side. I haven't seen the exact blade used in the Laplander saw listed separately for sale here in the US, but it's a common replacement overseas, especially in Europe.NOTE: The 396HP blade is for the 396HP 7-1/2" saw, the 396JT blade is for the 396JT Japanese Tooth style saw. Both of these blades are NOT the original blade for the 396-LAP 8" Laplander saw. Links below:396-JT:http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0001IX7OM/http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0034076OQ/396-HP:http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000288XPY/http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0001IX7N8/396-LAP:http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0001IX7OW/

How long is the blade and how long is the saw when it is closed?

Actually not 9 inches blade length but just under that. I dont have means of exact measures at this time. I would guess its about an 8 in blade and 9 inch handle that it folds into. So the closed length is actually 9 in.

Does it cut both forward & back?

I have not yet used it in the field, but by looking at the teeth, it looks like the cutting movement is back only? I could be wrong..
