Silky Gomboy 300-10 Folding Hand Saw

TheSilky Gomboy 300-10 is a compact outdoor saw equipped with a medium-tooth blade, ideal for cutting fresh wood.

Precision blade

Silky Gomboy saws are built on a centuries-old tradition of making reliable cutting tools and modern technology. This combination makes Silky tools combine high strength, sharpness and high cutting efficiency.

TheSilky Gomboy 300-10 has a 300 mm long blade with medium serrations (10 teeth per 30 mm blade length), which can perfectly handle cutting fresh wood. This causes the saw to be an ideal companion during various outdoor activities.

The blade is made of high-carbon steel, and its shape is precisely laser-cut. The surface of the blade is chrome plated, which prevents rusting and protects it from harmful external factors. The main advantages of the Bigboy saw are the blade teeth ground in four planes and the long aluminum handle. To prevent the teeth from breaking off, they have undergone partial hardening. The teeth have only their edges hardened, the rest of them remaining soft and flexible. Precision grinding in the shape of an hourglass prevents the saw from blocking during cutting.

Functionality

The extended handle of the Gomboy 300-10 saw increases comfort and reduces the effort to be made while sawing. The rubberized material of the handle prevents the saw from slipping from the hand, which positively affects our safety. The saw is folded in such a way that the sharp teeth are hidden in the handle. This allows you to carry the tool safely in a backpack or tool bag. Thanks to the locking mechanism, the blade can be locked while cutting. A hole in the handle allows you to attach a snap hook or cable to the saw.

Technologies

The tips of the teeth are heated to a very high temperature for a fraction of a second. Since only the tip (or otherwise the cutting part) of the tooth is heated, the rest of the tooth retains its cutting quality, but also its flexibility. Induction-hardened teeth have three times the life of untreated teeth. They cannot be sharpened and can be recognized by the black tips of the teeth.

The teeth are precision ground into the blade, each with 4 cutting surfaces. The teeth are "unspaced" so that the cutting surface cuts straight into the wood, destroying about 50% fewer wood cells. The blades are biconcave ground: the lower part of the blade (near the teeth) is thickest, the upper part is slightly thinner, and the blade is thinnest in the middle. This design has several advantages: Less power needed for sawing, discharges sawdust effortlessly (it won't get stuck in the wood), very clean saw cut - no breaking or tearing of the wood creates a very accurate, smooth saw cut.

GOM's rubber grip absorbs vibrations while sawing and provides an excellent grip, even in wet conditions or when wearing gloves. What's more, this handle always keeps you pleasantly warm, even in extremely cold temperatures.

The blades are made of Japanese Authentic Premium steel and laser-cut. The blades are of unparalleled quality: they are very hard and durable, but at the same time remain flexible thanks to a soft metal core. Hard and wear-resistant - The chemical composition of the metal combined with a unique heating and cooling process determines the high hardness of the metal. The high carbon content leads to high wear resistance, so the sharpness remains for a very long time. Soft and flexible - By forging the saws in such a way, the core of the saw tooth consists of soft metal, so that the saw remains flexible and easily grips the wood.

Chrome plating of the blade makes the blade surface extremely hard and durable, while reducing friction and increasing blade life. In addition, chrome plating protects the blade from rust and resin. Before applying the chrome plating, Silky polishes the blade to a silk-smooth finish. This makes the blade encounter even less resistance in the wood when sawing.

The razor-sharp teeth are precision ground into the blade, each with 3 cutting edges and resulting in an extremely smooth surface. For optimal sawdust evacuation, every so many teeth (depending on the saw model) is ground outward. This unrivaled, patented MIRAI-ME technology allows the saw to be used for 3 types of cutting: cross-cutting (perpendicular to the grain), rip-cutting (parallel to the grain direction) and mitering. During pruning work, a smooth saw cut will allow the tree wound to overgrow easily. In carpentry, smooth saw cutting provides an excellent finish, making sanding unnecessary.
