Silky blades are designed to make very smooth cuts. This is achieved by having non-set teeth and the teeth shaped so that the saw cuts on the pull stroke. With a Silky saw, the blade has all these chisel-like teeth that you pull over the branch to cut it.The Silky saw is also thinner than Western saws that cut when you push them. Western have teeth that are bent so that they make a wider cut than the rest of the saw that is following down through the cut. A Western saw needs to have a bigger and thicker panel of steel to maintain its rigidity when you push it. Otherwise, it would just jam and bend if you applied too much pressure instead of cutting when you push it.A Western saw has each alternate tooth bent the same way, one to the left, then one to the right, next one (the alternate) to the left again, next one to the right (the alternate on the right side).Keeping your Silky Clean.When you cut green timber, trees, or shrubs, you will get resin from them that will stick to your blade. At the end of the day, if you don’t clean your blade the resin will stick to your blade like a baked-on residue. You will need a volatile oil substance to remove it. A resin buildup will do two things. Left on the blade it will corrode the blade. It will also make the blade fatter than the cut you are doing. This will create friction and make it seem like the blade is blunt. Before you invest in a new blade check the blade for resin build-up. [/ux_text]
