Pruning saw SILKY Gomtaro 210-8, straight saw blade

Silky pruning saw Gomtaro 210-8, with straight blade 21 cm long, Mirai-Me tooth pattern, and holster.

The Gomtaro pruning saw is an essential part of the basic equipment of arborists, landscapers, and garden enthusiasts. This is due to the slim shape and clean cut this saw is known for.

The Silky Gomtaro 210-8 is a fixed pruning saw with a straight 21 cm blade, suitable for branches up to about 10.5 cm thick. The straight blade can be guided precisely and leaves a smooth cut. Its narrow shape makes the saw easy to handle in densely branched tree crowns and during work close to the ground. The rubber GOM handle absorbs vibrations and provides a balanced feel in the hand.

The blade of high-quality Japanese steel has a coarse Mirai-Me tooth pattern of 8 tines per 30 mm and a kerf of 1.4 mm. The unset tines have multiple cutting edges and saw across, diagonally, and with the grain. The coarse tooth pattern engages quickly, clears sawdust well, and is intended for fresh, moisture-rich wood. In dry wood, the tines may engage less easily and cause more vibration. The tine tips are induction-hardened and the blade has a nickel coating to help prevent wear and rust.

The plastic holster has two guide rollers that protect the tines and prevent the saw from falling out. The open bottom of the holster allows moisture and sawdust to drain away. In addition, the Gomtaro holster has a removable belt holder.
