Pocketboy 170-10 Little Giant
This multi-purpose pruning saw is perfect for all general outdoor cutting tasks. Above all, don't let the Pocketboy's size fool you. This little saw delivers big performance! And because you simply put the Pocketboy in your pocket, you always have this handy pruning saw at hand.
The Pocketboy is lightweight and perfectly balanced. Cutting is particularly smooth and you are able to work in the most dense areas. Pruning has never been such a fun job!
In case you are not yet used to cutting with a Silky pull saw, you have been warned about the razor-sharp teeth that work their way through wood at lightning speed. Even after frequent use, the teeth stay sharp for a long time so that you leave behind a smooth and clean cut time after time that can recover well.
When you are not using the Pocketboy, the blade folds in easily with the lock button. The sharp teeth are then safely covered as they fall completely into the handle. When you need the saw, you fold it out easily thanks to the notch in the blade, even when wearing gloves. The lock button allows you to safely lock the blade in two different positions.
The rubberised handle absorbs vibrations and offers an excellent grip. The Pocketboy sits firmly and comfortably in the hand, even after prolonged use. The recess in the handle allows you to attach a carabiner or lanyard to the saw.
You can carry the Pocketboy on your belt in the transparent hard case included. Also handy: you can simply store this compact folding saw in backpack or a toolbox.
The Pocketboy's extraordinary cutting capacity has earned it the nickname "Little Giant".
How to use
Silky saws are designed to cut with the pulling motion. When first starting, you position the pull saw so that the teeth closest to the handle engage the wood first. After the pulling motion, guide the saw back to the starting position by a pushing motion (without force). During the pulling movement, the thin blade cannot bend because there is no lateral force on it. The blade only follows the saw cut. Should the saw still clamp, never push or force hard, this may cause lateral forces and damage or break the saw blade. Always remove the clamping weight to free the saw.
The Silky saw guarantees a fine cut and requires little cutting force. Do not stress the saw. As your grandfather used to say: let the saw do the work. You are less likely to get tired and it benefits the life of the saw.
If you find the induction symbol on a Silky saw, the saw has been inductively hardened and cannot be re-filed with the Silky file. You can see it on the saw itself. Inductively hardened tooth tips are black.
You can slightly control the saw's wood removal by where you hold the handle:
- Close to the blade: there is relatively little pressure on the blade. The saw will take the least amount of wood, allowing you to cut very controlled and with precision.
- Further away from the blade: more pressure comes to bear on the blade. The cutting action is maximum, but less precise.
We are not responsible for any damage caused by improper use.
Maintenance
- Treat your saw with love. The Silky saw blade must be kept clean or the cutting action will be lost. Resin dissolves in olive oil, so this is an effective, eco-friendly way to clean the blade. Be aware, however, that if you use more aggressive agents, they may affect the rubber of the handles.
- When not in use, dry the saw thoroughly, put it in its holster and store in a dry place.
- Keep out of reach of children.
