Product information & specifications
Silky Yoki Billhook
The Silky Yoki billhook is a compact, full-tang brush clearing tool designed for professional arborists, foresters and serious gardeners. With its strong forward curve and 270 mm double-ground cutting edge, the Yoki excels at brush clearing, snedding and general woodland management where clean, powerful cuts are essential.
Crafted from authentic premium Japanese steel with a superior finish, the blade holds its edge superbly while remaining easy to maintain. The minimalist Genki rubber grip has no bolts or screws, maximising comfort and control while damping vibration. It can be quickly removed from the tang without tools, and the supplied durable nylon sheath protects both the blade and your fingers in storage or transit.

Usage, Grip & Maintenance
The Silky Yoki billhook is designed for one- or two-handed use, giving you the leverage and control needed for clearing brambles, saplings and side branches. The curved blade naturally bites into material, while the full tang construction and Genki grip keep the tool feeling secure and balanced in the hand.
To maintain performance, keep the blade clean and free from resin build-up. Resin dissolves effectively in olive oil, providing an environmentally friendly way to clean the cutting edge while protecting the steel. Always store the Yoki in its nylon sheath, and wear appropriate PPE, including gloves and eye protection, when working in dense vegetation.
