Description

TheSilky Pocketboy Curve 170-8 is an upgraded version of the popular hiking/survival saw, equipped with a curved blade that increases efficiency and makes it easier to cut branches above our shoulders. Version with 170 mm blade for fresh wood.

Professional hand saws of the Japanese brand Silky were created on the basis of a centuries-old tradition of manufacturing reliable cutting tools and modern technologies. This combination makes Silky tools achieve high durability and sharpness, which results in high cutting efficiency.

Silky Pocketboy is a series of compact travel saws with a lightweight and handy design, which has been a huge success in our country due to its performance and versatility of use. Pocketboy saw is especially appreciated by survivalists, bushcraft enthusiasts, hunters and canoeists.

The Pocketboy Curve 170-8 saw blade is precision laser-cut from high-carbon steel with high flexibility and high resistance to dulling. Compared to straight saw blades, the new blade 's gentle curved profile speeds up cutting and increases productivity by up to 15-20%. The slightly oval shape prevents the saw from falling out of the cut and makes it easier to cut branches above our shoulders.

The surface of the blade is chrome-plated, which protects it from corrosion, harmful effects of tree sap and weathering. Silky saws are distinguished by an advanced tooth design and a "back-to-back" sawing technique for maximum comfort and minimal energy input.

Sharp teeth for increased efficiency are ground in as many as four planes. Also important is the fact that only the edges of the teeth are subjected to induction hardening, so the rest of the blade is soft and flexible, thus protecting the saw from breaking during operation or improper use. The cutting part has an hourglass shape, as a result, the blade does not lock during cutting, as is the case with most saws on the market.

This distinctive tooth profile also maximizes the resistance during chopping, and the surface of the wood after cutting is extremely smooth.

The Pocketboy Curve 170-8 handsaw is equipped with a 180 mm long blade of medium type, i.e. 8 teeth per 30 mm blade length. Such a blade will work best for sawing a fresh bough of wood up to 85 mm thick.

The saw is folded in such a way that the aggressive teeth are safely hidden inside the handle. A locking mechanism allows the blade to be locked in two different positions, depending on the situation and working conditions. The Pocketboy model uses a polypropylene handle, which guarantees a high grip regardless of weather conditions. It comes with a practical lockable case, made of transparent plastic, which protects the tool when transported in a backpack or toolbox.

TheSilky Pocketboy Curve 170-8 is a pocket-sized saw that is sure to appeal to survivalists, bushcraft enthusiasts, hunters and those looking for a powerful tool for the garden or home workshop.

Silky Pocketboy Curve saws have interchangeable blades, available separately.
