Review: Silky Pocketboy 130 - Silky makes a great product. I already own the Gomboy 210 (and love it), but was looking for a more pack-able size. The Pocketboy 130 fits the bill perfectly. This is a Japanese-style saw, so it cuts on the pull stroke. The thin blade reduces friction, and the tapered thickness helps reduce binding during a cut. Many people tend to go too fast with this blade style, resulting in binding, bending and breakage. If this is your experience, then you're using it wrong ! It only cuts on the pull stroke, and should not be pushed forward with force. Keep your arm aligned with the cut, push it forward more gently and apply more force on the pull stroke. It's not a race - let the tool do the work. I do about 1 stroke per second, and my Gomboy 210 performs like a hand-powered chain saw ! I fully expect similar performance with this Pocketboy. When closed, the saw measures 6.5" long by 2.1" wide at the locking lever (its widest point) and tapers from .58 thick at the pivot bolt up to .99 thick at the handle swell back by the lanyard hole. When opened, the saw measures 11.5" long. The exposed blade measures 5.24" long from tip to handle frame, with 4.75" of teeth, and measures .040 thick at the teeth tapering to .027 - .030 thick at the spine. The blade locks open in two positions. It does not lock in the closed position, but there is sufficient friction in the pivot to hold it securely in place. The construction is very sturdy - a full length steel frame with a large steel pivot bolt, and over molded with hard rubber. The rubber grip area measures 4" long. If you're looking for a compact saw, with excellent performance and outstanding design and construction, look no further - it's this one ! !

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well-built and reliable
*by B***L on December 3, 2023*

We have 4 Silky’s from 130-240mm and fine to large teeth. All are fantastic. The 130’s are perfect for a pocket or pack. 240 stashes easily and safely in a work bucket. If you’re looking for reliable, sharp, and easy to store/transport folding saws, Silky is a great choice. 130’s are perfect if you’re out trimming and branch is too large for pruners. Keep a Silky 130mm Med or Large Teeth saw in your pocket or hung off your belt with the included case and clip. They’ll melt through large branches.
