I cannot praise this saw highly enough. If you have ever needed to cut roots when digging up a pesky privet grown into an ugly tree, or a volunteer walnut or maple that you don't want growing next to your fence, then you NEED this saw. I have used it on a dozen trees and shrubs when roots got in the way of digging it out. It is still as sharp as new, even though it has been cutting green wood with dirt, sand and rocks stuck to it.
I also own the Silky Hayauchi pole saw, and a Silky Master carpenter's saw, and all of these tools are of the very finest quality, and they are an absolute joy to use and even just to look at. I may already own 3 of Silky's fine saws, but I am sure to buy more of them!!

I was very surprised at how well this saw cut through wet, green wood. The teeth stayed relatively free from the debris, and cut 2 inch branches quickly. The saw felt sturdy and the lock mechanism worked easily.

I had borrowed one of these saws from a neighbor and knew I had to have one of my own. I use it mainly for pruning small trees and it cuts through even 4 inch limbs easily, and requires less arm strengh to use than most pruning saws. I highly recomend it, but add a word of caution, it is very sharp and must be used with care, even brushing your skin creates a unwanted result!

On a volunteering event, I was introduced to this saw. I could only borrow it; even though after several uses, I wanted to take it home. I used the Silky Gomtaro for tree trimming at a park. The guy that recommended this particular brand to me, was working in the Tree Trimming department at our company. They have to trim trees year round. I refuse to buy an $8.00 handsaw when someone can purchase one of these....believe me, this will be the last you buy. Even though it's a bit more expensive, it is worth the quality of this saw. Not to mention, when trimming my own trees, I didn't have to work as hard as I would have with the cheap hand saw. The Silky, and I am sure ALL Silky saws cut like this one does. This is a decent size saw for taking down small to medium branches. I have had no issues, and I can attach it to my belt and climb with it without worrying about cutting myself. I recommend this saw to anyone.

Amazon did not sell this at the time I bought mine ( and the Hayauchi pole saw ). This saw really cuts well even on oak limbs and is certainly easier carry when climbing up tall trees than a chainsaw. I have used it to cut a couple 8in limbs too.

Silky Telescoping Landscaping Pole Saw HAYATE 420 12-Feet 370-42 Review

Silky Telescoping Landscaping Pole Saw HAYATE 420 12-Feet 370-42
Average Reviews:

I was amazed at how light and well-balanced this 12' pole saw was and how quickly it cuts. I can extend it over my head at full arms reach and drop it over a branch 20' off the ground and quickly cut the limb. This saw cuts 1" fir limbs in one or two strokes and 4" fir limbs in just a few seconds, yet will not snag and hang up on even the smallest limb. In the week I have had it I have cut hundreds of fir limbs and dozens of oak limbs - even a 4" oak branch can be cut in about 1 minute. It was only with 7" oak branches that I felt that I might have tackled too much, though I could still cut the large branches. I really love the sickle for cutting small branches and preventing bark tears. Years ago I purchased a different pole saw but the blade was so aggressive that it dug into the branch and quickly bound up. On this saw even when the branch twisted and pinched the blade tight, I was able to pull hard and complete the cut. I have been given two other pole saws but they do not extend and they cut slowly. I had planned to buy either a battery powered electric saw like the Black and Decker pole saw or a gas saw like the Echo - but I hefted the saws in big box stores and found them heavy and awkward. At 65 years old, I was afraid I would be unable to handle them. I was also worried about the batteries running down too quickly on the B&D and also about battery failure. I am so thankful I decided on the Silky Hayate 12 foot pole saw. It was clearly worth the extra cost of buying the best - it is a lifetime tool that will be passed on to my children.

State-of-the-art, heavy-duty, aluminum telescoping pole saw - The pole saw of choice by professionals. Thick aluminum alloy extension poles are oval shaped, providing precise control over the direction of the blade (especially important for high cutting) thus reducing bending to the minimum. The base pole has a pole-end shock absorber and comfortable rubberized overgrip. The 16-21/2-inch curved blade utilizes proprietary Silky MIRAI-ME (Smooth Cutting) Technology. The precision-ground, razor-sharp, super-aggressive teeth with four cutting angles provide extremely fast cutting action. The taper-ground profile reduces drag and directs more usable energy to the cutting edge. The blade features a replaceable lower sickle for small branches and undercutting bark. Hayate is manufactured with high visibility colors and comes equipped with a new advanced design sheath with a built-in carrying handle. It is ideal for pruning large branches at a higher position without ever climbing a ladder. This is the strongest and fastest telescoping pole saw available on the market today. Made in JapanManufacturer Warning: Do not use aluminum telescoping pole saws around electrical power lines or equipment. Electrical shock may result. Incorrect use of the Silky pole saw may cause injury.SpecificationsTeeth per 30 mm / inch: 6.5mm / 5.5"Length: Overall 240" (6,100mm), Blade 16.5" (420mm), Closed 94.50" (2,400mm)Weight: With Sheath 8.65 lb (3,920 g), Operating 7.90 lb (3,580 g)Material: Aluminum Alloy, GOM RubberNote: To allow effective use of Hayate pole saws, two locking systems are incorporated to assure structural rigidity of the extended poles: 1) locking pins/buttons - the primary pole locking mechanism; and 2) friction clamps - the secondary pole locking mechanism.

Silky HOOK-FOX Accessory For Landscaping Pole Saws HAYATE HAYAUCHI LONGBOY & ZUBAT 425-01 Review

Silky HOOK-FOX Accessory For Landscaping Pole Saws HAYATE HAYAUCHI LONGBOY and ZUBAT 425-01
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Hook Fox can mount to a Silky pole saw in two ways: across the short axis of the pole saw (for all saws except the Hayauchi) or through the long axis (which is required for the Hayauchi). The hook itself is made of two separate, stamped, and plated sections, held together with rivets. The bolt holes that must be used when mounting the hook to the Hayauchi are formed from the two halves, and are simply pinched together by the rivets about 1/2" away from the holes (the three rivets in a row). On mine, this caused, after not what I would consider extraordinary use, the nuts to pull through the holes, spreading the two halves of the hook apart, popping those rivets nearest to the holes. This caused the holes (really two halves of holes, as I've explained) to become deformed, and I can not re-attach the hook in the intended fashion.
It's a silly design flaw, and I'm sure this explains why, even though this hook is supposed to fit all of the Silky pole saws, they make a separate hook for the Hayauchi alone, which is not formed from two pieces. Unfortunately, that other hook does not have the returns on the top side, which are useful for pushing branches or rope.
Silky Saws are great, but this particular design is very disappointing.

Silky 179-39 Telescoping Landscaping Pole Saw HAYAUCHI 390 21-Feet Review

Silky 179-39 Telescoping Landscaping Pole Saw HAYAUCHI 390 21-Feet
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I spent significant time researching extension pole saws that I could use to prune the many hard and softwood trees on my property without incurring the expense of a professional tree company. I was impressed by the 21' Silky Hayauchi but very skeptical about its ability to cut branches at this distance off the ground. I was also skeptical of my ability at age 66 to physically handle this saw at such an extreme height. I called the Silky Store and spoke to a representative regarding my concerns. They advised that I would not experience any problems as long as I engaged the double locking system on each pole extension and allowed the saw to do the work. They explained that the blade was designed to cut only on the pull stroke and that gravity would provide most of the required cutting force. The effort required on the push stroke would be minimal since no cutting occurs on the up stroke. Based on their advice and the Silky guaranty I purchased the 21' Hayauchi pole saw. I received it in 2 days! I was totally amazed with the incredible performance of this very high quality saw. I easily cut large limbs at least 20' or more off the ground. The guideance received from the Silky Store representative combined with my actual experience with this superior quality tool was very impressive. I intend to purchase additional Silky saws from the Silky Store.

The Hayauchi pole saw has rigid aluminum poles that quickly extend to desired cutting length. The base pole has a comfortable rubber grip. The extension lock with spring loaded buttons at the end of each length. The nearly 16-inch blade not only sports the largest teeth available in a razor tooth design, but has a sharpened base and tip for scoring the branch, to avoid ripping damage to the branch collar. The upper sickle is used to cut vines; the lower one - to undercut bark allowing a clean cut without damaging the tree. The aluminum alloy extension pole is oval shaped, giving precise control to the direction of the saw blade (especially important for high cutting) and also giving strength and rigidity to the pole, reducing bending to the minimum. Push buttons allow multiple length adjustments and safety clamps hold the extensions firmly in place. A rubber hand-grip ensures good hold and control. The blade is adjustable for lower or higher cutting.Replacement parts list (340K pdf file)Product Features: 3-Extensions (4 poles) model that extends to 21 feetExtension range 7'-8" to 21' Maximum working reach 25 feet 15.35" (390mm) length chrome plated blade with 5.5 teeth per inch (6.5 teeth per 30mm) Approximate weight 6.73lbg (3000g) A lightweight and rigid aluminum oval shaped pole Double lock system insures your safety while working Comes with its own full length, hard plastic scabbard Limited lifetime warranty against defects in material and workmanshipDo not use this item near electrical hazards.

Corona Clipper AC 7241 Razor Tooth 13-Inch Tree Pruner Saw Blade Review

Corona Clipper AC 7241 Razor Tooth 13-Inch Tree Pruner Saw Blade
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I recently bought this blade as a replacement for my Corona pole pruner.
This blade was an upgrade to the original. I would say the claim that "cuts twice as fast" is definitely accurate. I wish I had bought sooner.
Arrived in a few days and was easily installed.
This item is designed to be a universal replacement blade for several different manufacturer's pruners. So the only disadvantage is on my pole pruner, the base of the blade overlaps the space for the guillotine pruner. Probably only about 1/4" though. Not the end of the world, but would be nicer if this was not the case.
