Details: 

As with all Silky Saws, the cut is on the pull stroke which means the blade will be under tension and will not bow.

Technical: 

This Hayauchi blade is manufactured from SK-4 carbon steel and is cut out by laser. The taper-ground profile reduces drag and directs more usable energy to the cutting edge.

The Hayauchi utilises Silky’s proprietary 4-RETSUME teeth technology (4 rows of teeth), whereby the teeth are set in such a way that there appears to be four rows of them – which leads to faster, more aggressive and easier pruning. These saws can easily be used for rougher cutting and heavier tasks as they can rip-cut, cross cut and slant-cut.

The Hayauchi Pole Saw blades are chrome plated which helps protect against rust and sap, as well as providing additional strength. This also helps extend the life of the blade.

Hayauchi Pole Saw blades are not manufactured using electro impulse hardening, and as such can be re-sharpened using a feather-edge file. This should help extend the life of the blade.
