This saw is extremally sharp with very aggressive cut and I was surprised how fast it cuts though branches with very little effort. One thing that takes a little bit of practice is applying cutting force on the pull stroke only. The blade is too thin to support much pressure on the push stroke. You do need to be careful that you don't cut the tree/branch in a way that the blade can be pinched. The blade will easily bend if its pinched and a lot of push force is applied. I use this to cut 1" diameter and larger Invasive bush Honeysuckle trunks. It cuts this soft wood very easily and the saw folds up and drops into a belt attached holster. Its light and easy to carry through the woods. I have slayed acres of bush honey suckle with this thing. I cut the trunk, treat the stump with Tordon and crawl to the next one. One man honey suckle Ninja! Review: Favorite Item in My Hunting Pack - Perfect for throwing in my hunting pack and useful my myriad of tasks from trimming a shooting lane to using as a bone saw. Compact with a nice case, ergonomic and sturdy grip and otherworldly sharp. If you’re on the fence about this because of the price just go ahead and buy it. You won’t regret it. I also own the larger Outback Big Boy for firewood and other chores around camp. Silky saws are the best. ## Features - The curved blade coupled with pull-cut technology results in the fastest cutting speed available - approximately 15-20% faster than straight blade PocketBoys - 6.7-inch (170mm) Blade length, 6.8 teeth per inch configuration, 1.4mm blade thickness, Cut capacity 3.4" - Taper ground to reduce resistance resulting in smoother, easier, faster cutting performance - Impulse Hardening: The teeth of the blade are heated instantly and hardened and stay sharp about three times longer than non-hardened teeth - Each PocketBoy comes with a hard plastic belt case.

What solvent is best?** A: You can soak the blade in water or mineral spirits before brushing the teeth to remove the saw dust. After that you can apply WD-40. **Q: Do Silky hand saws cut on both strokes, i.e., do they cut on the push and the pull?** A: Hi, they cut on the pull stroke. The curvature of the blade is very efficient. **Q: How much does this saw weigh?** A: My saw including the case weighs 288g. **Q: Can this be used in the construction field? ....2x4 etc...** A: You probably can if you have to when no other means are available at that time.. But it is really for actual tree limbs/branches where you are not really look for precision that you would need for construction. Power tools or manual backsaws and or fastcut hand saws that are made for the construction field would in my opinion give you the proper accurate cut needed. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very surprised at how fast this cuts. *by A***R on June 1, 2023* The teeth on this saw are not typical of hand saw kerf, it is made to cut on the pull stroke only.

Compact with a nice case, ergonomic and sturdy grip and otherworldly sharp. If you’re on the fence about this because of the price just go ahead and buy it. You won’t regret it.

Silky saws are the best. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little saw *by C***S on January 13, 2021* All silky saws cut fast and effective but the curved blade models cuts noticeably faster than their straight counterpart. This is a small saw to throw in a bag or put on your belt using the plastic case (Which isn’t the best). It will cut decent size limbs and trees but don’t expect it to cut big diameter logs. I’m my opinion it’s great for sawing small firewood, clearing brush, building a shelter, clearing limbs for my tree stand and so on. If you want to cut big stuff go with the larger version. If this sounds good then buy it now. The curved one is the best option even tho it’s a little more expensive. ## Frequently Bought Together - Silky Professional Series PocketBoy Curved Blade Folding Saw 170mm Large Teeth (726-17) - Silky GomBoy Curve Professional Folding Saw 210mm, Large Teeth (717-21) - Silky - 717-24 GomBoy Curve Professional Folding Saw 240mm, Large Teeth Yellow --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/57411244-silky-professional-series-pocketboy-curved-blade-folding-saw-170mm-726](https://www.desertcart.us/products/57411244-silky-professional-series-pocketboy-curved-blade-folding-saw-170mm-726) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-22*
