Questions & Answers

Can you tell me what the best overall saw tooth size is?

It is medium. This is literally how the Japanese Kanji on the package of a medium teeth saw/blade reads "***" A blade for everything is a translation that directly translates into English. Obviously, the size of the branches/limbs will vary from one situation to another. ) only if you intend to handle thicker material

What is the comfort level of the handle when ?

This is a great product, one of the best if not the best foldable saw out there, it has a rubber coating that gives you comfort and grip while you are pulling the saw.

When the blade is open, how wide is it? There are some trees growing through a chain link fence that need to be chopped down, for they need to fit between the holes. ?

I suppose it would fit, but it will take a lot of work considering what the chain link fence looks like.

In both the professional and nonprofessional series, what are the differences?

Compared to the standard series, the professional series is much stronger. This tool can cut branches up to two feet long in a matter of seconds because it is very sharp.

Selected User Reviews For Silky GomBoy Professional Folding Saw 210mm Medium Teeth

The cost of a replacement blade is more than that of a Replaceable blades aren't as impressive when I consider that one new saw would cost more than the blades! Presently, Prime will replace a blade on this saw for $35 and will replace the entire saw for If you know what you are doing and have a small enough file, you might be able to touch these up once
4/5

For all intents and purposes, the saw is disposable when the blade is more expensive than the whole To illustrate, take the following example. There's no technical reason why the blade cannot be replaced. What is the point of doing it? There is a way to get multiple blades in a single unit, but it is way cheaper to buy several whole units and take the replacement blades out if necessary.

Keeping Silky GOMBOY is a good idea
5/5

The last folding saw I bought was a Felco made in Switzerland, which I used to travel in Mexico primarily for fieldwork. Every since, I've been using it to get the yard work done. Although I need a backup and something to make it a bit different, I've thought that I need something of my own as well. In the end, I decided on the GOMBOY with medium teeth after asking an online group for information and doing further research. I've added it to my toolbox and I love it. I highly recommend the Silky GOMBOY, which has a great weight and size, and a blade that cuts perfectly. This feels good in my hand. I use the second position when I need it for tricky tasks Prior to arriving, it wondered whether there was a plastic case inside Despite the inconvenience, I've decided to go ahead with it. Having decided which Silky saw I want to buy next, I am starting to plan my next purchase.

Despite my wildland firefighting career, I didn't make it through the first six cuts
3/5

Besides firefighting, I also cut trees on the side. I thought this would be a good little saw to keep in my pack in case of fires and in my pocket as a quick backup saw when I'm cutting The Silky saws that I have used in the past have been excellent and I was hoping for a similar saw in the future. I was blown away by my first impressions. I love how easy it is to use and how comfortable it is. She cuts so well. My top snapped off half way through my sixth cut when it flexed on the push. As we see how warranty plays a role, we'll determine the outcome. There appears to be some kind of manufacturer's error in the way it snapped. wasn't a user error I've used hand saws all my life. This is the first time I've encountered this issue. Despite its thinness, the blade does seem to be rather heavy, and I assume this is for ease of use and weight. My recommendation would be not to buy an iPad if this is all they are like. If you are actually going to use it, look for something a little more sturdy. You might find this saw to be more suitable if you are a grandma who simply needs to make 5 gentle cuts in the garden.

Good saw, but on the pricey side
5/5

I bought this primarily for camping/backpacking purposes, but it also comes in handy for some yard work as well. As well as working on green wood, it works well on seasoned wood as well. Despite my rough handling of the saw, there has been no damage so far. For those who have the money to spend, this is the ideal choice, but if you are looking to save some cash, the Bahco is an equally good option.

It would have been great if I had bought one purchased this item in order to use it when camping, hunting, bushcrafting and taking similar As cheap as I am, I had been trying not to spend money on this thing
5/5

But after all the positive feedback it was getting from popular youtubers like Dave Canterbury and Shawn Kelly, I finally decided to try it out. Even before I finished cutting the first piece of wood, I was in love with it. Due to its aggressive cut, it is capable of quickly and easily cutting down logs that you might think are too large In addition to its light weight, it seems very well made, making it one of the best products in its class. The pouch simply slides into the bottom of a BDU cargo pocket and is so light that you don't even notice it at all.

I think this is the best folding saw I have A folding saw of this quality is by far the easiest to use and sharpest on the market
5/5

The silky brand saws are in a league of their own compared to others I have used before. I really enjoy carrying the gomboy when I'm backpacking and keeping a fire going. There is even a nice plastic case to go with it. Basically, the catanboy500 will perform the same duties as a chain saw without the hassle of noise or These saws are ideal for bushcrafting! I bought these, along with a katanaboy500, and that's really all I need to fell trees and keep my stove running.

Woodworking with a hand saw is the best way to process wood in the forest
5/5

My main purpose is to use this saw while out in the woods to prepare A saw with a blade of 1 inch length is faster than any other. You can find less expensive options elsewhere, but this one is more efficient if you just want a portable folding saw that eats through wood. You can watch many videos of Silky saws being tested against other brands on YouTube. Here are a few things to keep in mind A pull stroke is the only way to cut Although this ensures a particular geometry of teeth that can ensure fast cutting, it also means you will jam the blade sooner or later, and after that it will Cheap replacement blades are hard to come by. IMO, the fact that a pull stroke is the only way to utilize it limits its versatility when carving finer details. Although functional, the case cannot be used for more than storage due to its clunky design. In the event you want to wear the saw, you'd better make or purchase a sheath. A lanyard is wrapped around the blade to prevent accidental opening of the saw since it does not lock shut.
