The low-glare Black Oxide coating gives the blade a matte, non-reflective finish, making it ideal for tactical work. Crucially, the coating provides exceptional corrosion protection, ensuring the saw's reliable cutting performance endures in any environment. The curved 24 cm blade with 8 teeth per 30 mm naturally holds its position in the wood, delivering smooth, effective strokes on both green and seasoned material.

- The blade must be kept clean to maintain its efficiency. Resin dissolves in olive oil, which is an effective and environmental friendly way to maintain the blade with. When not using the saw, make sure it is dry at all times. Store the saw in a dry place, preferably in the hard case.
Straight or curved blade
The straight blade gives a very clean saw cut with more precision and is better for bushcraft (building shelters, traps, tools etc.). The curved blade saws faster and with more aggression, especially while working above shoulder height and below the knees, so it's better for tree climbers and arborists.
Silky technology
The technology behind the Silky has gathered almost 100 years of experience in the production of handsaws, always with the greatest devotion and according to the latest techniques. The saw blades of Silky saws are made from Authentic Premium Japanese Steel and cut out by laser. The blades are of unparalleled quality: they are very hard and longwearing, but remain flexible at the same time thanks to the metal’s soft core.
Black nickel and tin coated blade
Silky applied a black coating of a unique nickel and tin blend to the entire blade, including the teeth. This provides a long blade life and an incredible cutting performance, not only in wood but also when sawing bones. In addition, the dark, non-reflective color makes this saw particularly suitable for tactical operations.
Wood/plastic composite handle
The arbor composite handle is made of a wood/plastic composition, giving a warm and comfortable touch and superior control. The feel is a bit harder than the usual GOM rubber handle from Silky, but it offers more grip with greasy substances.
Mirai-Me – Silky’s patented teeth
The razor sharp teeth are grinded in the blade with precision, each with 4 cutting edges and an extremely smooth surface as a result. For an optimal discharge of saw dust, one of every so many teeth (depending on the saw model) has been ground to the outside. This unmatched patented Mirai-Me technology makes it possible to use the saw for three types of sawing: crosscutting (perpendicular to the grain), rip-cutting (parallel to the direction of the grain) and diagonally. During pruning activities the smooth saw cut will allow the tree wound to be overgrown easily. Within carpentry, the smooth saw cut gives a fine finish, so that sanding is hardly necessary.
Non-set teeth
The teeth are grinded in the blade with precision, each with 4 cutting surfaces. The teeth are “non-set” (in compare to a classic Western saw), so that the cutting surface cuts straight into the wood, and destroys about 50% less wood cells in the process. The blades are grinded biconcave: the bottom part of the blade (at the teeth) is thickest, the top part slightly thinner and the blade is thinnest in the middle. This design has several advantages:
- Less power needed to saw: saw extremely fast
- Discharges saw dust effortlessly: no getting stuck in the wood
- Very clean saw cut: without breaking or tearing of the wood, it hardly splinters and creates a very fine, smooth saw cut.
Electro-impulse hardening
The tips of the teeth are heated up to a very high temperature for a split second. As only the tip (or in other words the cutting part) of the tooth is heated, the rest of the tooth keeps its cutting quality but also its flexibility. Induction hardened teeth have a lifespan of three times that of non-treated teeth.
