We consider a good saw a mandatory addition to your repertoire before heading out into the backcountry - whether it's getting your machine unstuck out of a tight squeeze or building fire and shelter for an emergency overnight, when you need one, you need one.
And when it comes to good saws, Silky are #1!

-
Patented non-set tooth pattern - excellent speed and low-effort cutting. Doesn't "snag" as easily
- Electro-impulse induction tooth hardening - up to 3x longer life. Applied only to tooth tips and edges, so flexibility is not compromised (ie never brittle)
- Sturdy handle - rubberized grip is comfortable and reduces vibration
- Limited lifetime warranty against defects in material and workmanship
