Silky F180-14 Folding Saw - Yellow

Folding hand saw from the renowned Japanese brand Silky, designed for precise wood cutting. Thanks to its blade with 84 teeth made of high-carbon SK-4 steel and an ergonomic handle with a non-slip finish, it performs excellently both in the garden and during fieldwork in the forest.

 

SK-4 carbon steel, chrome-plated blade, locking mechanism

The 180 mm blade is made of durable SK-4 carbon steel, known for its high resistance to mechanical damage such as cracking or chipping. A chrome-plated finish protects the blade against corrosion and moisture, significantly extending the tool's service life. The model is equipped with a blade lock that allows it to be set in two positions, improving comfort and safety during use.

Handle

The ergonomically shaped handle is made of a combination of polypropylene, rubber, and steel reinforcements. Rubber inserts improve grip stability and reduce vibrations during operation. A hole at the end of the handle makes it easy to attach a lanyard or carabiner, facilitating transport and storage of the tool.

  • blade made of high-carbon SK-4 steel

Silky


MILITARY is a premium dealer of Silky.


Silky is a Japanese manufacturer of hand saws with a long tradition, whose origins date back to 1919, when Katsuji Miyawaki founded the company in the city of Ono. For more than one hundred years, the brand has built a reputation for reliability and precision, and its tools stand out for their exceptional build quality. The saws are made from top-grade steel and undergo impulse hardening of the teeth (impulse hardening), which, combined with a design intended for ‘pull’ cutting, ensures smooth operation and precise, clean cuts. In 1980, Silky patented its proprietary saw setting process, which significantly increases tool sharpness – this solution has been used, among others, in the 4-Retsume and Miraime2 models. The Japanese manufacturer’s solutions are used by professionals from around the world: arborists, foresters, carpenters and bushcraft enthusiasts. It is worth mentioning that in 1985 the ‘Gomboy’ model was the first on the market to receive a rubber-coated handle, which contributed to winning the prestigious Japanese Good Design Award. Thanks to the combination of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and modern technological solutions, Silky has for years ranked among the leading manufacturers of hand saws.

    The blade is quite flexible, but very sharp. With proper use, it cuts easily, as if slicing through butter. It fits well in the hand, and its length allows you to quickly cut even a thick branch with just a few movements. I definitely recommend it!

    Good equipment for this price. It cuts efficiently and I hope it will keep its sharpness for a long time. It can handle thicker pieces of wood, although it takes a bit more time. It bends slightly. I use only one blade setting – the other is not very comfortable for me.

    Silky F180-14 folding saw - Yellow. Silky cuts even thicker wood, it's a pleasure to watch. However, you have to be careful not to break the blade. Other than that, this product is a 10/10.

    Something wonderful. Even though most of it is made of plastic, even the lock button, the materials are very strong and solid. The Japanese know how to make cheaper equipment that still has great quality. The teeth are set closely together, which makes cutting comfortable. This is already my third Silky saw and definitely not my last. The design is very ergonomic and lightweight.

    Good blade, works perfectly in the garden and for building a shelter in the field. It easily handles thicker branches and even trunks. The blade is lightweight and compact, easy to put in your pocket or bag. It has become a permanent part of my equipment.

    Great saw – light, just the right size. It handles even thicker pieces of wood with ease. The Silky brand means top quality among saws – I have several models and all are reliable, like the Rolls-Royce of saws.

    Cuts incredibly quickly. A good blade does the job, even handles wet wood. Excellent for various tidy-up jobs in the orchard or garden. The yellow housing is an advantage – it’s hard to lose it outdoors.

    Super equipment. Build quality at a very high level, as always with Silky. This is my third folding saw from this brand. Compared to the same red 7.5, it has smaller teeth, so the cut leaves a smoother surface.

    This is my first saw of this type and it has really surprised me in a positive way. The speed and quality of the cut for such a small tool are really impressive. I recommend it to anyone looking for a folding saw for camping or garden work.

    It is extremely light, fits well in the hand, and cuts excellently – it’s the perfect addition to your gear. I think the price for this product and brand is very favourable. I recommend it!

    Great saw, tested many times outdoors. In the current version, it works excellently with dry wood. For very resinous, fresh or wet wood, I recommend buying a different blade. The teeth are one-sided, so the saw only cuts on the pull stroke, but it doesn't require much effort. It easily cut through logs with a diameter of up to 13 cm. I recommend it!

    The three biggest advantages of this saw are: lightness, low price and sharpness. After a few days of use, I haven’t noticed any disadvantages. It’s important to use it as intended and only cut on the pull stroke – otherwise the blade can easily bend or break.

    Exceptional saw – compact and lightweight. The narrow blade ensures a thin kerf and high work efficiency. You must remember to cut only in your direction, as with Japanese saws, so as not to permanently bend the blade. I highly recommend it.
