Perfect for garden pruning and light tree work. The perfect pruning saw for regular use in the garden - for thinning shrubs, pruning fruit trees and other meatier jobs that secateurs or loppers can’t handle. With a chunky, sturdy rubber handle and 21cm blade that easily cuts branches up to around 7cm diameter, this is the ideal size to carry with you at all times - it fits very nicely in the Double Holster with a pair of Secateurs, or on its own in the Saw Holster. As with all Japanese saws, it has a narrow blade for efficient sawing, and cuts on the pull stroke - go easy, and don’t twist or snag the blade. Pruning is not about strength or energy, it’s about care - positioning, precision and rhythm, about feeling what you’re doing, responding to the situation, rather than bulldozing through. Saw Care: Japanese Pruning Saws are great. They cut on the pull stroke, not the push, which means the blade is under less pressure when cutting, and uses less energy, resulting in a far cleaner, faster cut. They whizz through green wood, but the blades are more fragile than traditional western saws and incorrect use can result in damage. Use a smooth, gentle sawing action, doing the cutting on the pull, and gliding back on the push Don’t let the weight of the branch pinch or catch the blade Don’t twist the blade while sawing Don’t use a small saw for a large job. Treat 1/3 of the length of the blade as the absolute maximum sensible cutting diameter Don’t use a large saw for a small job. A 12" blade will happily cut a 1/2" branch, providing the branch is rigid - but most 1/2" branches move around a lot, and don’t allow for accurate sawing. Use Secateurs or Loppers instead Don’t blame us if you snap the blade. Blades snap through misuse and poor handling, neither of which are covered under the warranty!
