All Silky pullsaws have taper-ground blades to allow fluid, straight cut. Teeth are actually wider than the mirror polished blade and are replaceable with a single ingenious action. Taper
ground blades reduce friction and binding and hard chrome plating
resists rust and resin.
Wash your blade regularly with warm soapy water
to remove resin deposits. Build-up of resin will make it harder and
slower to cut and if additional force is applied during cutting, bending
or breakage may result. Always keep your blade clean for optimal
cutting performance.
To get the best from your Silky Saw, use the teeth,
not your strength and apply gently power to the pull stroke. Let the
saw do the work.
