The Silky Woodboy Folding Saw excels in its ability to deliver precise, clean cuts in various woodworking applications. Its thin, flexible blade is particularly effective for intricate joinery work, allowing for detailed cuts with minimal kerf. The chrome-plated, taper-ground blade ensures smooth cutting action and resistance to rust and pitch buildup.
The folding mechanism, activated by a quick thumb release button, makes this saw both portable and safe to carry. When folded, it measures just 12 inches, making it easy to store in a toolbox or carry on-site. The ability to lock the blade in two positions adds versatility, allowing for use in tight spots and for kerfing dados.
With three blade options available, users can choose the configuration best suited to their needs. The backless blades offer maximum flexibility and cutting depth, while the backed version provides additional rigidity for straighter cuts in thicker materials.
The ergonomic handle design, featuring an aluminum alloy core with a rubber grip coating, ensures comfortable use even during extended cutting sessions. This attention to user comfort, combined with the saw's cutting efficiency, makes the Silky Woodboy an excellent choice for both professional woodworkers and serious hobbyists seeking a high-quality, versatile saw for precision work.
