A brave choice tackling a scope of works that you've never undertaken before, perhaps a few quotes from local landscapers could be a thought and way forward.
Good luck
When I used my circular saw thought we used to hark up to length with a set square so we could follow the line around and not get the step in them.

1.. sanvik 244 hand saw
a brand new hand saw will give a decent cut but you still need a bit of skill to keep it in a straight position when moving forwards and backwards and to follow the lines you have marked on the sleeper
2..bow saw
fine for cutting a tree down but you will end up with a cut on the end of the sleeper like a dogs hind leg
3.. chain saw
will still give you an average cut and you have to know how to use one as they can snatch into the wood and kick back
4..cross cut saw
will give the best finish out of all the above tools but you will have to turn the sleeper over as all the cross cut saws will not cut all the way through a 8 x 4 or a 10 x 5 sleeper
5..reciprocating saw
similar to a bow saw finish but mechanised
whatever tool you decide to use always aways aways be very careful when using power tools and keep you hands clear

Basically it's a chainsaw in a circular saw stylee and can apparently go to 60 degrees
If I remember correctly from a timber frame course I took a while back there are attachments, mainly in the U.S., that you bolt onto your chainsaw. It's like the baseplate of a circular saw and acts in much the same way.
