I watched it again, and you cut that log with 54 strokes! Amazing !!

I need this in my life.

That coaster cut was spot on!

I carry a Silky Gomboy 240 and a Silky Katanaboy 500 out for my adventures. They are incredibliy effective. Easy to harvest all the dead wood around my camp. As you showed, it's easy to cut a plate with just a few pull strokes on the saw.

Good to see this saw in action with its pros n cons, and tips added... appreciated you taking the time to take us along for the experience. Great job!

Great review Ben!

Thats so odd I got a Pocket Bout 170 today and its the first Silky Saw I have had and they are totally amazing. The Katana Boy is something else, thanks for the great video Ben

Awesome. Thanks for the demo.

I've got the 500 as well and its amazing. Such a great blade. So easy to cut through logs up even 16" if you needed to.

Makes sense now that I've seen it. Good job convincing me👍

awesome review! I feel when im using the Silky Katanaboy i would have one hand on the back of the handle holding normally but the front would be above ( Back hand facing up to sky ) it helps to keep the downward Pressure ) Stay safe and stay awesome Mr Ben and everyone!

Cracking review mate. Have 3 of the smaller ones and want a big one

I bought one some time ago and it cuts just like you showed. I thought the time might come where one could not but gas for chainsaw even. Still need to feed the wood stove ! Old Boy Scout, Be prepared !

So where's that update video you promised? How's the saw holding up? How much cutting did it do before you had to sharpen it?

Wow, that's a cool piece of kit - might you add this KatanaBoy 500 to your store (fab search results on this review!!)

I just purchased this saw off amazon. $130 and free shipping at the moment. My honest opinion is, love the saw, perfect in every way. I can't see the need for the bigger one either. It seems like (6'2" tall) this saw maximizes the use of my reach and length. I can't see getting any additional benefit from the longer one, give the mechanics of a sawing motion.

Bigger saw allows bigger maximum log size

Well done! Very helpful...thanks!!

I got to buy one now. Awesome tool

"Coasters for Christmas." Hahaha!!!! These blades are a workout for sure. Thx for the vid!!!!!!!!!!!!

We share the same bow saw. It has its place in the kit, for sure. My go to, which is always in the rig, is my Katana 500. Hopefully you didn't sacrice a camera when the stack tumbled. Cheers, Clay.

Went through that like butter 👍

wow how would have thought! i was shying away from a saw that big but now i think its a good idea.. J..

Nunca he usado una de esas sierras. Por eso me gustaría preguntar lo siguiente: Pierden con facilidad el filo de los dientes al cortar madera seca con esta sierra? Tengo sierras pequeñas con dentado Japonés (filo en tres ángulos del diente), y funcionan de maravillas para madera verde. Pero en madera seca pierden rápidamente el gran filo inicial (de marcas Bahco, Bellota, Carpa)

I've been wanting one of those saws for a while now. I didn't know they now do a 1m blade, that's just mad!

The 1000 is pricey at $650, but it's a ripper. kzread.info/dash/bejne/fn5pmMR7YZatfZs.html

Good review... thanks

wicked review thanks

Hi, really cool video thanks. Would you consider doing a video on how to sharpen this saw please?

im sold. got one sitting in my ebay cart and was not 100% sure about going through with it.... should mount nicely on the side of my hiking pack

Made me want to buy it! But its out of silky stock and not yet on your website😃

Yes, out of stock unfortunately. Beginning of May stock should be back up!

If you're cutting resinous conifers, the occasional spray with wd40 can reduce gumming up of the teeth. Great saw!

Hi mr ben .nice to meet you. I like your channel. Please you try silky saw Genki Temagari. I think Genki is best saw for green wood working and bushcraft. I want ask your opinion.

FANTASTIC 💯💣💣💣

I've been checking that out for trail maintenance. Crazy winds lately have felled big trees blocking way and when no one is clearing them out people stomp new ones. Price is just way steep.

What was the price? 👍

totally needs a back scabbard for that :D

How much does it cost?

I have my 10" curved Corona razortooth which is an amazing cutter but I wanted a bigger saw for those bigger jobs so I ordered this one here when I saw it on sale $75 off the regular price, here in Canada everything is over priced

Hi, Ben can you tell me the website or store name where can i buy silky katanaboy 500 saw?

Wtf lol I got a brochure from Vermeer and has all of these saws in the brochure lol awesome saw lol

Katana massa!!!

😍😍😍, from Luxemburg 😉

Wow! Oh, $250... I guess it looks worth it if you're actually going to use it often on outdoor trips with no access to electricity.

The katanaboy 1000 is just ridiculously expensive!

I've bought one, awesome tool. Cut up 2 bodies last night in under 15 minutes. 🤣👍

Man this is awesome! and their way cheaper too if you buy them directly from Amazon Japan instead of buying them from the American Amazon website.

👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽✌️✌️🙏🙏

BeasT of a saw

Impressive!!! Great, now I'm going to go spend 140.00... but oh well!

Imagine an actual katana blade option, for those tall brush cutting tasks 8)
