DESCRIPTION
Born from the Blade. Reborn for the Fire.
Introducing "Pocket Takibi" —an exclusive, ultra-compact campfire crafted for outdoor explorers. Crafted from premium carbon steel, that fell short of the strict requirements required to become a saw, the Silky Takibi is a limited run project.
In Japanese, Takibi means “open-air fire,” commonly referring to a bonfire or outdoor fire used for warmth & cooking. Here's what Silky have to say about this "green project" (a further initiative to reduce & repurpose waste):
" At Silky, our quality standards are borderline obsessive. A fraction of a millimetre of warping, a single microscopic scratch – and our journey to becoming a saw is instantly cut short. Normally, we’d be tossed straight into the furnace to melt into nothingness. But someone spoke up and said, 'there’s no way in hell we’re letting this high-carbon steel die like that.' So, we evolved. From blades that cut, into a shield that holds the fire: the pocket takibi – the ultra-compact campfire gear."
Every piece has its own character. Any minor scratches or texture variations are a testament to the raw steel—a unique patina to be seasoned by your own campfires.
• Scratches are Badges of Honor: Scuffs and raw surface textures aren't defects – they’re proof we survived the brutal selection process. Season them dark and rugged in your own campfires.
• Strictly Limited Run: We only exist because of the steel that didn't make the cut. No factory line, no mass production. Just pure, accidental exclusivity.
We refused the scrap heap. Now, let us burn bright in your pocket.
We think the Tabiki makes an excellent Christmas present for that outdoor lover in the family. The guy (or gal) who has everything, and wants for nothing except more time in the hills, the bush, river, sea or lakeside. The Pocket Tabiki will cook the freshly caught fish & venison or heat the tin of baked beans if the fishing or hunting was a bit thin.
We have been allocated a limited number of stock - so be in quick if you have the perfect-someone-in-mind this Christmas.

FAQs -Silky
Can I sharpen a Silky blade?
For most of us it's nearly impossible to recapture the original edge on our Silky Saw, and therefore many people prefer to simply purchase a replacement blade. Most Silky blades are impulse hardened (the teeth and blades are heated instantly and hardened) and stay sharp about three times longer than non-hardened teeth. These blades are therefore incredibly difficult to sharpen. There are saw doctors with specialised machinery that can do it for you, but there is a cost to this.
Some Silky blades however are not impulse hardened, and more commonly the larger saws. For these saws, if you do wish to sharpen the blades, we recommend the Silky Feather Edge Sharpening File. This file is wedge shaped on both sides which allows you to get right in to the teeth of the blade.
Attached also is the Feather Edge File User Guide that shows you a list of Silky Saws that are sharpenable and the angles that you should be sharpening to.
However, if you wish to replace the blade, follow the tutorials below:

How do I clean my silky blade?
To clean a Silky Saw blade effectively, you can use hand sanitizer, a toothbrush, and oil to remove resin and debris, ensuring optimal cutting performance.
1. Apply Hand Sanitizer - Start by applying a generous amount to the teeth and blade. The high alcohol content makes it an effective cleaning agent, helping to break down resin buildup. Alternatively, you might like to check out our specialty sap remover here.
2. Let It Sit - Allow the hand sanitizer to sit on the blade for a few minutes. This waiting helps to loosen any stubborn debris, making it easier to scrub off.
Straight or curved blade?
Which is better? Straight or Curved? It's pretty easy - neither, and both.
Silky straight blades have been the traditional choice or Arborists and Orchardists as they are a better choice for undercutting and are slightly easier to get into tight spaces. However a Silky curved blade will cut slightly quicker than a straight one, because the natural curve of the blade will 'bite' into the wood at the toe end of the cut as you pull the blade towards you, increasing the cut speed. A curved blade is also advantageous when
Sheath saw or folding saw?
When you ask which one should you have, the key question is what kind of usage are you planning? If you're going to use the saw for continuous periods of time, then a sheath saw will probably be better for you. Sliding the saw into the sheath making both hands free to move branches etc is certainly an advantage. Sheath saws also tend to usually be longer in blade length, making them better for cutting larger limbs. However if you're just using your saw around the garden at home, then a smaller folding saw may be more suitable. Folding saws are also great for the car glove-box, or on the quad bike around the farm, and now very popular for the track building and maintenance crews and even the mountain bike rider.
