The ultimate
non-set teeth professional carpentry saw. This new Silky saw
series offers more than a cosmetic difference from other
Japanese saws. Drawn-aluminum, rubber-gripped handles give
these saws much greater heft than the typical rattan-wrapped
wood handles. Chrome-plated blades are taper-ground, and
thickest along the cutting edge. The resulting clearance
within the kerf eliminates the need to set the teeth, while
giving better-than-usual “steer ability” during the cut. All
the advantages of Japanese saws remain: fine kerfs thanks to
the pull-cut teeth; precise, controlled cutting; and
durability from impulse hardening. Blade is replaceable with
a single ingenious action with a quick flick of the
reassuringly stout locking lever. Tsubasa saws are in
single-edge crosscut format (Kataba-type).

Product Technology
Non-set Teeth - Blades
are made from SK-4 high carbon steel and taper ground i.e.
thicker at the tooth edge, thinner at the back of the blade.
This taper reduces resistance giving smoother, easier,
faster cutting performance.
Mirai-Me Smooth Cutting
- The teeth of the future! Blades have precision ground,
razor sharp teeth with 4 cutting angles along their length.
They leave an especially smooth surface after cutting and
are ideal for pruning, greatly reducing the risk of
infection. They can rip-cut, cross-cut and slant-cut.
Impulse Hardening - Using a
special high frequency heating technique, teeth are heated
instantly and hardened. Because of this localized heating
process only the teeth of the blade are heated and hardened.
The remainder of the blade is unchanged and still retains
its normal flexibility. The hardened teeth are harder than
an ordinary file and stay sharp about three times longer
than non-hardened teeth.
Hard Chrome Plating -
Hard chrome plating produces an exceedingly hard, durable
surface. The blades are resistant to rust and the effects of
resin. They are finely or mirror polished and wipe clean
easily.
Rubber Handle - Almost
all Silky saws have rubber compound elastomer handles either
inserted or vulcanized to ABS plastic or steel are
comfortable to hold, reduce vibration and offer superior
grip when hands are wet or cold and when wearing gloves.
