One of my favorite tools Aug 09, 2010
By R. Wellington
I have owned this saw for a couple of years and absolutely love it for cutting brush and pruning trees. It tears through 6" hardwood branches with its perfectly-shaped curved blade, but also makes quick work of finger-thick saplings which it dispatches with a single stroke. I often use it now rather than loppers. I've even bought a couple to give to friends as gifts. I have owned a number of different types of saws over the years--mostly bow saws--but this is infinitely easier and quicker to use. The Silky can get into much tighter spaces, cuts faster and cleaner, and is much easier to carry with the beautifully designed scabbard. A pleasure to use.

Excellent!! Oct 22, 2008
By shanem46
This saw makes short work of trimming limbs. Inch thick oak and ash is cut with about 6 strokes. It is very sharp and is a quality product in every way. The first time I used it, I was cutting firewood with a chain saw, splitting some foot thick pieces and stacking the wood. I used the Silky to cut some branches and stubs off the firewood before stacking, rather than fire up the chain saw. I think the curved blade helped cut faster.
I didn't use the scabbard at first, just putting the saw back in it and leaving it where I was at the time. That lasted until I wanted to use it and had to remember where I left it. I was working on three different piles of wood, about 20 feet apart. Walking over to the next location, I thought, "So that's why they give you the scabbard." Now when I find a small piece of wood on the side of a future piece of firewood, I just reach for the scabbard on my side and take care of business.

Silky hand saw Zubat 330 May 18, 2009
By M. McClendon
Nice saw and sturdy holster at a very good price. I can take this with me every work day out on the trails, but still have both hands free to take loppers, axes, or other tools.

Masterful work of art! Oct 16, 2011
By M. Mercedes
Darn these Japanese with their magical talent for making the most exquisite swords, saws, and knifes in the world today!
As an owner of several expensive, beautiful Japanese kitchen knifes and cleavers, I still try to always buy American when I can, but it is getting harder all the time. With a lot of neglected trees to prune, I gave in and invested in this saw after reading the favorable reviews here.
Form is function. This saw is a beautiful piece of work. Well-balanced and designed. A pleasure to hold in the hand. Works like a dream. This saw cuts right through heavy hardwood branches with ease.
Makes old-fashioned garden saws seem laughable, primitive and incredibly archaic by comparison.
I have to say that THIS baby is now my most cherished garden tool and I have several high quality tools that I love.
This is the kind of precision saw that you might never want to loan out to anyone else! You will cringe to imagine someone using this saw recklessly and not honoring its superb quality. You might love it so much that you will keep your old-fashioned pruning saw handy to give to your neighbor (or spouse) when they ask to borrow a saw!
I can't recommend this enough. WHAT a gift for the gardener in your life. WHAT a gift to yourself! What a joy to own!
Amazing Mar 31, 2012
By AS
This is an incredible saw. It cuts with ease and leaves very smooth surfaces at the cut. It cuts so quick and is so sharp that one needs to be careful. If one uses as much force as one uses with a typical bow saw, the Zubat can break through the cut much sooner than expected. Smaller diameter branches can be cut with just a slight touch from the saw. Wear work gloves and be mindful of the placement of your hands relative to the saw when you work.
