On every outdoor adventure I have been on a Silky Saw is always one of the top 5 items I always carry. Whether it’s on a hike, snowmobile trip or ATV excursion, the Silky Saw is always with us. Silky has proven itself time and time again to be a solid, well-made tool and a must for any outdoor adventure.

Why Silky? 

Well, it is small, portable, light-weight and incredibly sharp.  So sharp, in fact, that one person reviewed the product and said “It cuts slightly slower” than his chain saw!!  Blade lengths for the new Silky Outback Edition Saws range from 6.7 inches to 14.2 inches.  

Chose the right saw

Every adventure has its own criteria.  Sometimes it is weight over function and other times it is the opposite.  Lucky enough, Silky has a great size range to work with.  I personally feel that the Silky Outback Gomboy Curve Professional is a great overall size.  With a blade size of 9.5 inches and a weight of just 0.63 pounds it’s a great outdoorsman’s saw for small diameter trees and limbs but also cuts bone which makes it a great pack saw for hunters.  The unique, new black-plated, highly durable Nickel/Tin blend provides longer blade life and improved cutting performance.

The Silky Outback Edition hand saws feature a handle made of arbor composite which provides excellent grip and control for wet, cold and game-processing conditions. The blade can cut bone and wood and is black-plated with a Nickel/Tin blend to improve durability and reduce reflection for stealth, low-impact activities.

“The Silky Gomboy Outback is outstanding! First Silky I've ever used and it will not be the last.”

The Silky Gomboy Outback Curve features a blade with 6.8 teeth per inch. Those teeth are Non-Set Teeth and taper ground to reduce resistance for smoother, easier and faster cutting. This has been a big factor in it’s popularity with hunters.  The new Outback Edition hand saws feature a handle made of arbor composite which provides excellent grip and control for wet, cold and game-processing conditions.

The unique, new black-plated, highly durable Nickel/Tin blend provides longer blade life and improved cutting performance.  Another benefit of the black-plated blade is concealment – sometimes a shiny polished metal blade is not what your covert op requires.   

All of the Outback Edition saws have a dual blade lock system which allows for cutting at different angles which comes in handy when cutting over your head. The integrated locking system is spring loaded and firmly locks the blade into place.
