The saw is exceptional. It’s lightweight, not too big and not too small. It can easily cut even thicker pieces of wood. In short – Silky is top class when it comes to tools. I have several different models from this company and each one is a true Rolls-Royce among saws.

Silky F180-7,5 Folding Saw - Red
Folding hand saw from the renowned Japanese brand Silky, designed for precise wood cutting. With a blade featuring 45 large 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.

MILITARY is a premium dealer of Silky.
Silky is a Japanese manufacturer of hand saws with a long tradition, dating back to 1919, when Katsuji Miyawaki founded the company in the city of Ono. For over a century, the brand has gained a reputation for reliability and precision, and its tools are distinguished by their exceptional quality. The saws are made of the highest quality steel and undergo impulse hardening technology, which, combined with a design intended for ‘pull’ cutting, ensures smooth operation and precise, clean cuts. In 1980, Silky patented its own saw setting process, which significantly increases the sharpness of the tools – this solution has been used in the 4-Retsume and Miraime2 models, among others. The Japanese manufacturer's solutions are used by professionals 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 feature a rubber-coated handle, which contributed to it winning the prestigious Japanese Good Design Award. Thanks to the combination of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and modern technological solutions, Silky has been one of the leading manufacturers of hand saws for years.

This is already my second Silky saw. The previous 360 model left a smooth surface after cutting, whereas this smaller one is perfect for working on finer elements and does it very quickly. I also have a Laplander saw, which is great, but I think this one is better. The handle is partially rubberised and fits very well in the hand. A dedicated case would be useful, even at an extra cost. Despite this, I would choose this model again without hesitation. The size is ideal – neither too big nor too small.

Some time ago I bought a Bahco saw and was satisfied with its cutting, but now I’ve received the recently purchased Silky saw and, though it’s hard to believe, it cuts twice as fast with minimal effort. It cuts branches with a diameter of 5 cm in just a few strokes. It’s lightweight, very sharp, fits perfectly in the hand, and its promotional price is spot on. It has one downside – using it is addictive and a smile appears on your face. Highly recommended.

The saw is very well made and worth every penny spent. After experiences with cheap saws from the supermarket, this one cuts wood without any problem. You can’t see it cutting, it operates very smoothly – remember to cut towards yourself. The product is lightweight, comfortable to use and definitely worth recommending.

A compact, very handy and practical saw, it fits in your pocket. It’s very sharp and can even cut through thicker branches without any trouble. Remember to always cut towards yourself. The build quality is excellent, and the two possible blade positions only add to its advantages. It doesn’t have a lock when closed, but the blade remains stable. I recommend this saw.

Silky is a brand that guarantees quality – this saw is a great example of that. It’s very lightweight and extremely sharp. Using it is pure pleasure, and the handle fits perfectly in the hand. When folded, it takes up very little space and the blade is completely hidden. A big plus is the possibility to buy a new blade if the original gets dull. I chose the 7.5 version because it allows for faster work. I definitely recommend this purchase.
