Check out this SILKY SAW TIP!

You already know how awesome Silky saws are for tackling big, tough material—sometimes, you don’t even need a chainsaw. But here’s the thing: those extra-large teeth can be a bit of a problem when you’re pruning smaller or more delicate stuff, like ornamental trees. You’ll end up with rips and tears, which isn’t great for the tree or your customer’s satisfaction.

Here’s the fix: just run the saw backward. It gives you a nice, clean cut without any tearing, keeping your work looking sharp and professional.
