A light saw with a narrow blade and the same aggressive performance as a "big saw"? Yes, it is possible! Silky has succeeded in developing a pruning saw with a narrow blade that enables precise pruning without sacrificing performance. This ingenious design makes the Tsurugi a perfectly balanced saw.
With the Tsurugi, you can work with surgical precision in the most densely populated areas without damaging nearby branches. This saw is also ideal for removing compression forks and working in the tightest branch crotches.
The powerful blade has high stiffness and a row of razor-sharp, aggressive teeth that leave a smooth cut. The comfortable Genki revolver handle has no bolts or screws and consists of just two rubber parts that perfectly encase the steel. Very practical, and no additional tools are necessary!
The aluminum sheath is designed so that the saw does not fall out, but can still be drawn out with just one hand. The sheath is lightweight and can be used by both right- and left-handed users. Complete the Tsurugi with the available leg strap, and you will always have the saw within reach.
Did you know that the Tsurugi is named after an ancient Japanese double-edged sword? Proof of its excellent performance!
Series description
The Tsurugi is suitable for pruning fresh wood and is available with two different tooth counts: 8 per 30 mm and 10 per 30 mm. Available blade lengths are 200–300 and 400 mm. Do you prefer working with a curved blade? Then the Tsurugi Curve series will be your choice.
All saws in the Tsurugi series come with a lightweight aluminum sheath (for both right- and left-handed users) with a removable belt holder. The sheath has 4 rollers that prevent the sharp teeth from damaging the case. The bottom part is equipped with a hole that drains moisture and sawdust.

The blade must be kept clean to maintain efficiency. Resin dissolves in olive oil, which is an effective and environmentally friendly way to maintain the blade. More aggressive liquids can damage the rubber material in the handle.
When the saw is not in use, make sure it is dry at all times. Store the saw in the sheath in a dry place.
