The Silky Zubat 270mm Curved Pruning Saw 270-27 is one of the most popular pruning saws among arborists and serious home gardeners worldwide, and it suits New Zealand conditions perfectly. The 270mm curved blade is made from high quality Japanese steel with Silky’s Mirai Me tooth design, giving you fast, smooth cuts with less effort. The large tooth pattern bites quickly into both green and seasoned wood, so you can deal with bigger branches without reaching for a chainsaw. 

Cutting on the pull stroke keeps the blade in tension which improves control and reduces the risk of kinking, especially when you are working in awkward spots or up a ladder. The hard chrome plated blade resists rust and sap build up, and cleans up easily after pruning natives, fruit trees or shelter trees around New Zealand. 

A one piece construction with a moulded non slip rubber handle means the Zubat feels secure in the hand even when it is wet or cold. The included black polypropylene sheath is custom fitted to the curved blade and has a pivoting belt holder, so the saw hangs comfortably at your side while you move around the block, job site or orchard. 

Whether you are tidying shelterbelts in Waikato, pruning stone fruit in Central Otago or maintaining native plantings on a lifestyle block, the Silky Zubat 270-27 is a reliable go to pruning saw. With proven Silky build quality and a 12 month manufacturer warranty, it is a big step up from basic pruning saws sold through general hardware stores in New Zealand.
