The Silky Gomtaro 210-8 is a professional Japanese pruning saw featuring a 210 mm long straight blade with a coarse tooth configuration of 8 teeth per 30 mm, optimized for cutting fresh wood. This hand saw incorporates the advanced Mirai-Me tooth design, where the teeth are ground directly into the blade thickness without traditional tooth setting, resulting in clean cutting performance and smooth cut surfaces on branch wounds. Made from a special steel alloy with a continuous blade construction extending into the rubberized handle, the saw retains its sharpness longer while providing perfect balance and vibration dampening during use. The blade is hard chrome plated, protecting against rust and resin adhesion while ensuring exceptional wear resistance. Included is a sturdy belt pouch with a quick-release mechanism and a custom-fit black plastic sheath with drainage holes to prevent moisture and sawdust buildup. The Gomtaro series forms the foundation of Silky's straight pruning saws and is recognized worldwide by arborists and forestry professionals as essential equipment. Available in various lengths from 180 mm to 330 mm with two tooth variants: the coarse 8-teeth-per-30-mm version is ideal for fresh wood, while the fine 13-teeth-per-30-mm version is suitable for drier, harder woods like fruit trees. The ergonomic rubber grip provides comfortable handling and significant vibration dampening during extended use. The precisely fitted sheath can be attached to a belt or leg using available Silky leg straps and features bottom drainage holes for moisture and dirt management. This pruning tool combines Japanese precision engineering with practical features for reliable performance in general pruning and tree care tasks.
