Folding SaW TSUBASA FINE Teeth
The ultimate non-set teeth professional carpentry saw. This new Silky saw series offers more than a cosmetic difference from other Japanese saws. Drawn-aluminum, rubber-gripped handles give these saws much greater heft than the typical rattan-wrapped wood handles. Chrome-plated blades are taper-ground, and thickest along the cutting edge. The resulting clearance within the kerf eliminates the need to set the teeth, while giving better-than-usual "steer ability" during the cut. All the advantages of Japanese saws remain: fine kerfs thanks to the pull-cut teeth; precise, controlled cutting; and durability from impulse hardening. Blade is replaceable with a single ingenious action with a quick flick of the reassuringly stout locking lever. Tsubasa saws are in single-edge crosscut format (Kataba-type).

Non-set Teeth - Blades are made from SK-4 high carbon steel and taper ground i.e. thicker at the tooth edge, thinner at the back of the blade. This taper reduces resistance giving smoother, easier, faster cutting performance.
Impulse Hardening - Using a special high frequency heating technique, teeth are heated instantly and hardened. Because of this localized heating process only the teeth of the blade are heated and hardened. The remainder of the blade is unchanged and still retains its normal flexibility. The hardened teeth are harder than an ordinary file and stay sharp about three times longer than non-hardened teeth.
Mirai-Me Smooth Cutting - The teeth of the future! Blades have precision ground, razor sharp teeth with 4 cutting angles along their length. They leave an especially smooth surface after cutting and are ideal for pruning, greatly reducing the risk of infection. They can rip-cut, cross-cut and slant-cut.
Hard Chrome Plating - Hard chrome plating produces an exceedingly hard, durable surface. The blades are resistant to rust and the effects of resin. They are finely or mirror polished and wipe clean easily.
Rubber Handle - Almost all Silky saws have rubber compound elastomer handles either inserted or vulcanized to ABS plastic or steel are comfortable to hold, reduce vibration and offer superior grip when hands are wet or cold and when wearing gloves.
