The Comet semi diesel saw was produced in Norway around 1949 starting was by a propane gas[ contained in the handle] glow plug to facilitate starting. It weighed approx 19 lbs so was competative weight wise in it`s day, designed by [not sure who actually manufactured it] by one Rasmus Wiig. Have no idea if it was successful, or for how long it was produced I seem to remember reading somewhere that the company was bought out, or maufacturing was taken up by one of the companys producing petrol/gas chainsaws, not sure who though maybe Huskvarna,Jobu.or some other scandavian company since taken over
