The Silky F180 is a compact Japanese folding saw with a 180 mm (7 in) blade, an all-around pull saw for pruning, gardening, camping and quick cuts on the job.
The chrome-plated, taper-ground blade has non-set, impulse-hardened teeth and locks open in two positions, one of them for flush cuts. Folded, it is 225 mm (8.9 in) long. It has been a Shelter Tools favorite since the early 1980s.
Pick the teeth by handle color. Red is the large-tooth saw at 6.4 TPI for green wood and fast pruning. Yellow is the fine saw at 12 TPI for hard, dry wood. Replacement blades are sold for both.
