With its long \u003cstrong\u003e390 mm blade\u003c\/strong\u003e and Silky’s unique extra-large teeth, the Ibuki is capable of tackling sizeable branches and even small tree removals — often eliminating the need to reach for a chainsaw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe curved blade geometry allows you to \u003cstrong\u003esaw efficiently above the shoulder or below the knee\u003c\/strong\u003e while keeping your arm, wrist and hand in a natural, comfortable position.
