Professional Series PocketBoy Folding Saw 170mm (346-17)

The POCKETBOY is a compact, lightweight folding saw with a 6-3/4-inch blade that takes up minimal space in your pocket or backpack. Nicknamed the "Little Giant," this saw boasts an extraordinary cutting capacity. The sleek design features a rust-resistant, hard chrome-plated, taper-ground blade with an impulse-hardened, non-set tooth configuration for greater cutting efficiency.

Utilizing Silky's proprietary MIRAI-ME (Smooth Cutting) Technology, the precision-ground, razor-sharp teeth provide fast, clean, and smooth cutting. The blade locks securely into one of two open positions, either in line with the handle or flush for flush cutting. The blade resists the effects of tree resin and can be easily wiped clean.

The non-slip rubberized handles offer a sure and comfortable grip, even in the most challenging operating conditions. Exceptional design, strength, balance, and superior finish quality ensure exceptional performance.

A clear plastic flip-lock carrying case with a belt clip is included, making the POCKETBOY an ideal saw to keep in your glove box or take on hikes. Crafted in Japan, the POCKETBOY is available in two blade lengths: 5-inch (130 mm) and 6-3/4-inch (170 mm). The blades are interchangeable within the same blade length.

Each blade length is available in four teeth size/configuration options (teeth per inch or tpi): - 7 tpi - Large/Coarse (for pruning, green wood) - 8.5 tpi - Medium (for soft wood) - 17 tpi - Fine (for hard wood, bamboo) - 22 tpi - Extra Fine (for dry, hard wood)

The color-coded handles correspond to the teeth configuration: Red for large teeth, Black for medium teeth, Yellow for fine teeth, and Purple for extra fine teeth.

It's important to note that not all blades are created equal. Beware of thinner, non-Professional blades made for the Japanese market only. If your blade doesn't have the word "Professional" etched into it, please report the seller to Amazon.

In summary, the POCKETBOY is a compact, lightweight folding saw with a 6-3/4-inch blade that offers exceptional cutting performance and versatility. The rust-resistant, hard chrome-plated blade with an impulse-hardened, non-set tooth design, coupled with the non-slip rubberized handles, provide a sure and comfortable grip for even the most challenging projects. Whether you're pruning, working with wood, or cutting bamboo, the POCKETBOY is an ideal companion for your outdoor adventures.
