Silky Katanaboy 500-5 saw blade

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.
