Silky Gomboy Curve 240-8 saw blade is crafted from top-quality Japanese steel. It features an additional chrome coating offering protection against corrosion, wood sap, resin, and other detrimental environmental elements. The slightly curved blade design aids in faster cutting, boosting efficiency.
The edge is tough, durable, and flexible, which helps in avoiding damage during cutting. Its impulse-hardened teeth ensure long-lasting usage. These teeth are aligned in four planes and due to precise sharpening, they deliver a smooth cut that prevents wedging.
Eight teeth are positioned per 30 mm of the blade. The cutting section boasts an hourglass-shaped cross-section, resulting in a clean cut, free from rough edges. One tooth is oriented upward to expedite the removal of debris. The patented MIRAI-ME technology enables cutting in three directions: across, along, and diagonally.
Store the blade in a dry and pristine environment.

Silky is a Japanese manufacturer of hand saws with a long tradition, with origins dating back to 1919, when Katsuji Miyawaki founded the company in the city of Ono. For over one hundred years, the brand has built a reputation for reliability and precision, and its tools stand out for exceptional build quality. The saws are made from top-grade steel and use 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 was used, among others, in the 4-Retsume and Miraime2 models. The Japanese manufacturer's solutions are used by professionals worldwide: 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 ranked among the leading hand saw manufacturers for years.
