Corona Razor Tooth 7-inch
Score: 75/100
Silky Pocketboy
Score: 88/100Rankings
The Silky PocketBoy is a compact, Japanese-manufactured folding saw engineered for portability without sacrificing cutting power in soft wood. Its primary limitation is the inability to sharpen the impulse-hardened teeth, requiring full blade replacement when dull. It is best suited for outdoor professionals and hobbyists prioritizing weight reduction and packability for pruning tasks.
The Corona RS 7041 is a lightweight 7-inch folding pruning saw with a pistol-grip handle, designed for single-handed use on branches up to 3 inches. Its replaceable blade and RazorTOOTH technology offer good value for light pruning tasks. However, its limited capacity and lack of user reviews make it less suitable for heavy-duty applications.
