Silky saws cut on the PULL
stroke for faster, more
efficient cutting and excellent
discharge of chips.
Cutting on the pull stroke
requires less energy and
gives you more control over
the action of the saw.
Teeth are set in such a
way that there appears to be
4 rows of them. These are
rough cutting hand saws for
heavier tasks. They can rip-
cut, cross-cut and slant-
cut.
Blades are made from
SK-4 high carbon steel and
taper ground i.e. thicker at
the tooth edge, thinner at the
back of the blade. This taper
reduces resistance giving
smoother, easier, faster
cutting performance.
Hard chrome plating
produces an exceedingly
hard, durable surface. The
blades are resistant to rust
and the effects of resin. They
are finely or mirror polished
and wipe clean easily.
Using a special high
frequency heating technique,
teeth are heated instantly and
hardened. Because only the
teeth are heated the blade
retains its normal flexibility.
Hardened teeth stay sharp
about 3 times longer than non-
hardened.
Almost all Silky saws
have rubber compound
elastomer handles, either
inserted or vulcanised to ABS
plastic or steel. Rubber
handles are more comfortable
to hold, reduce vibration and
offer superior grip in the cold
and wet.
The teeth of the future!
Blades have precision ground,
razor sharp teeth with 4
cutting angles along their
length. They leave an
especially smooth surface
after cutting and are ideal for
pruning, greatly reducing the
risk of infection. They can rip-
cut, cross-cut and slant-
cut.
