Silky

Silky – Japanese precision and exceptional sharpness

When you need to clear a shooting lane on a hunt, build a shelter or prepare firewood for the campfire, there is no tool quite like a Silky. Silky saws are made in Japan according to proud traditions and with the latest technology, resulting in a very sharp and durable blade. We carry Silky because it is gear that does not let you down – whether you are deep in the forest or working in the garden.

Legendary models: Pocketboy, Gomboy and Bigboy

Silky has a saw for every need, however much space you have in your backpack:

• Pocketboy: "The little red giant saw". Compact enough to fit in your pocket, yet powerful enough to cut through thick branches in no time.

• Gomboy: The most versatile folding saw, which has become a favourite among bushcrafters worldwide. A good balance between size and performance.

• Bigboy: For when you are working with larger logs. With its long blade and ergonomic handle, it can replace an axe in many situations.

Why is a Silky saw better?

What sets Silky apart lies in the blade and the teeth:

1. Pull-stroke saw: Silky saws cut when you pull the saw towards you. That means the blade does not bend, and you get a straighter, cleaner cut with less effort.

2. Impulse hardening: The teeth on a Silky are heated and hardened in a special way that keeps them sharp up to three times longer than conventional saws.

3. Taper-ground blade: The blade is thicker at the teeth than at the back. This reduces friction in the wood, so the saw does not bind – even in wet wood, when you are out in your Ocean rainwear.

Caring for your Silky

A Silky is built for hard work, but Japanese steel needs the right care:

• Remove resin: After cutting pine or other resinous wood, clean the blade. A drop of olive oil or Scherell's Schaftol will often loosen the residue.

• Prevent rust: Always wipe the blade after use in damp weather, and give it a thin coat of oil before putting it away. You will find everything for care in our cleaning and maintenance collection.

• Replaceable blades: One of the big advantages of Silky is that you can easily buy a new blade when the old one wears out. It is both cheaper and more sustainable than buying a whole new saw.
