In case you are not used to sawing with a Silky pull saw, be aware of the razor sharp teeth that rapidly work through the wood. Even after frequent use, the teeth remain sharp for a very long time, so that time and time again a smooth tree cut will be left behind that the tree recovers well and quickly from.
- Blade length: 170 mm (till Ø 85 mm)
- Teeth: medium (10 teeth per 30 mm)
- Suited for both fresh and hard wood
- Limited lifetime warranty
Non-Set Teeth
The teeth sit within the blade’s thickness instead of being bent outward like many Western saws. Combined with a taper ground blade, this gives very smooth, fast cuts with minimal waste and a very clean surface.
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.
Hard Chrome Plating
A modern protective coating that makes the blade surface very hard and resistant to rust and resin buildup. It extends blade life and keeps cutting performance high for professional use.
GOM Rubber Handle
A premium rubber handle that feels warm and secure in the hand, even in cold or wet conditions or when wearing gloves. It absorbs vibration very well and reduces hand fatigue during long cutting sessions.
Mirai-Me (4 Cutting Angles)
A special tooth design with four cutting angles that lets one saw handle rip cuts, crosscuts, and slant cuts. It leaves an exceptionally smooth surface that often needs little or no sanding.
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.
Intermediate Handle
A handle shape that sits between a straight grip and a revolver grip. It offers good control while keeping the wrist in a comfortable, natural position.
