GOMTARO - Root Cutting Large Teeth Professional

The SILKY GOMTARO ROOT CUTTING saw is a beautifully balanced saw, and like all other Silky Saws uniquely combines a high-performance blade with a comfortable and durable rubber handle. When the cutting gets tough, the Gomtaro gets cutting! And with the great combination of the blade and rubber handle that really sticks in your hands, this saw is ideal for all pruning tasks.

The straight blade on the Gomtaro allows for precise cuts in limb removal and is great for general tree care. The blade is specially hardened to deal with cutting roots in and around the dirt and ground and features a tooth style that cuts through fibrous root systems efficiently.

*Gomtaro - the Japanese meaning of the word Gom means "rubber (handle)" and the word Taro traditionally means the "first born son" in a family. Together the word Gomtaro embodies Silky's commitment to tradition, family honor and cultural values.

Maintenance:
Although the blade on this tool is made from the highest quality Japanese steel and is coated with a hard chrome plating that is resistant to rust and the effects of resin, it may still rust if not properly maintained.

We recommend you clean the blade with warm soapy water and a light brush to remove tree sap. For anything heavier, you can use our Yanipika Sap and Resin cleaner. After drying your blade thoroughly, to prevent oxidation and maintain a smooth cutting feel, we also recommend you oil the blade. You can use our Camellia Oil for this. Once your maintenance is complete, store your tool away in a moisture free place.
