GKC Series – DAICHI

Description

The comfortable pistol grip handle makes this saw a pleasure to use.  Easy to grip creating a highly efficient cutting action.  The orange detail also helps to locate it if dropped in a pile of brash!

Whilst this saw can be used for all types of wood it is specially designed for use with more fibrous softwoods.  The raker tooth literally rakes out the cut as you pull back on the saw keeping the cut clear of debris ensuring a rapid efficient cutting action.  The raker tooth can, initially, result in slightly grabby feel on harder woods but works just as well once you have become familiar with it making this a truly versatile saw.

In addition to the raker tooth this saw, like the GC series, incorporates the unique Samurai design of the teeth which creates a consistent cutting action across the whole length of the saw.

Like all quality Japanese pruning saws, the razor-sharp teeth are designed for cutting on the pull stroke.  They are manufactured using the finest quality SK-5 steel, laser cut and impulse hardened to create a high cutting speed with minimal effort.

The impulse hardened teeth last up to 3 times longer than conventionally manufactured saws.  This involves passing a high-frequency current through only the teeth which hardens the teeth only maintaining the flexibility of the remainder of the saw blade.

The taper ground blade reduces friction increasing cutting efficiency and providing a very smooth cut to help protect the cut surface from infection by pathogens.
