SUPER KENRYU Pole Saw 1.9m
1.9m SUPER KENRYU Pole Saw.
More Details
The Gyokucho SUPER KENRYU Pole Saw 1.9m offers the same precision and ease of use as its larger sibling but in a more compact, lighter package-perfect for everyday pruning and detailed work where maneuverability is key.
This extendable aluminum pole saw is equipped with a robust Sentei steel blade, engineered for clean, damage-minimizing cuts on green wood, fruit trees, and dense foliage. The shorter pole makes it ideal for lower branches or tighter spaces, while maintaining the same high-quality blade technology found in the 3.4m model.

Impulse-Hardening
The teeth are hardened with a quick, high‑frequency heat treatment so they stay sharp up to three times longer than normal teeth. These blades cut very fast and clean but generally cannot be resharpened and are replaced when dull.
Electroless Nickel Plating
A thin but extremely durable nickel coating that covers the entire blade, including the teeth. It greatly improves wear resistance, slows rust, and helps prevent sap from sticking, so cuts stay smooth and easy.
Hijirime
A special tooth pattern where some teeth are slightly shorter than others so they don’t cut but act as tiny cleaners. This staggered height helps clear sawdust from the kerf, reduces cutting resistance, and improves overall cutting quality, especially for fine crosscuts and rip cuts.
Taper Ground Blade
The blade is slightly thinner at the back than at the teeth. This reduces friction and binding in the cut, so the saw feels smoother, needs less effort, and leaves a narrower kerf.
Replaceable Blade System
The blade can be removed and replaced when dull or damaged, usually via a simple screw or click‑in mechanism. This lets you keep the same handle while swapping blades for different tasks or renewed sharpness.
