Thanks to double teeth hardening, the Gomtaro Root Blade has extremely high abrasion resistance, even with frequent use in sandy environments. While climbing you will not always move in the most comfortable positions. Even then, the Gomtaro will not let you down. The scabbard is designed in such a way so that it will hold the saw in all positions, but when needed you can pull the saw out with just one hand. Complete your Gomtaro with the available leg straps and you will always have the saw at arm’s length. The manufacturing process also uses the technique of high-frequency electro-impulse hardening during which the teeth are heated and hardened. Importantly, only the teeth are hardened, not the rest of the blade. Thus the blade retains its original flexibility whilst the teeth have a life which is up to 3 times longer than that on standard saws.Impulse hardened teeth - heated instantly and hardened, designed to stay sharper three times longer than non-hardened teeth If you would like further information or advice on any of our products or a printed catalogue detailing all our saws and

The physical exercise of tree climbing demands a saw that eases the pruning. Rightly so, professionals choose Silky as their hand saw. Sawing with the Gomtaro requires a minimum effort and goes so smoothly that firing up a chainsaw is unnecessary. Moreover, you now have a compact replacement at hand for when a chainsaw is not available or for when you can only use one hand. The rubber casted handle lays comfortably in your hand and absorbs vibrations. You will realize that your lower arm and the saw are perfectly balanced out.

The blades are also chrome plated which helps protect against rust and sap as well as providing additional strength. This helps extend the life of the blade. Zubat looks to give more cutting power due to curved blade and slightly better access in between close branches.
