This saw blade is designed for general pruning of medium to large branches. It has a tooth style that will cut dense and sappy timbers with ease. It has a hollow ground blade, which reduces friction when cutting. This allows the cutting stroke to feel very easy and fast.
The teeth are non-set, they are what Silky calls a Mirai-Me tooth style. This style of tooth creates a very smooth cut which leaves the branch so smooth that it will appear as though it has been given a light sand. This benefits the tree by reducing the chance of water and bacteria sitting on groves in the timber therefore allowing infection into the wound.
This style of tooth makes a wider cut in the timber than the thickness of the blade, reducing the chance of the blade jamming in the cut. The blades are made out of high carbon steel, this is very strong steel but is also quite flexible, which is very important in a hand saw. The blades are also coated to give them some protection from rust and resin. This saw blade comes in two blade lengths, 24 and 30cm
