Chainsaw is an EP by Skinny Puppy, released on 27 April 1993 through Nettwerk.

It arrived in the gap between two of the band's studio albums, following Last Rights (1992) and preceding The Process (1996). For listeners tracing the group's path from the early synth records of the mid-1980s through to their later work, it marks a point in the middle of that run.
