    I have the Gomboy Outback and absolutely love it!! The blade differs from their others for particular use on dried wood or bone.

    Quite the challenging log to cut. I was watching closely to see if it was going to pinch the blade. You did very well. I was thinking about using a wedge. 😊

      Yes! It was challenging! You will see the result in a subsequent video soon. Thanks!

    Canadian prepper made several videos about Silky saws over the years, the only ones I have are the regular 240 and the F180 with small teeth.

      Trying to decide on the Big boy or Gomboy. I just want to be able to process fire wood to keep a fire going in the bush for a week. What one do you recommend for this? Appreciate the help!! 🎉😊

      @Gordon87Gekko I think it depends on how large the general trees are in your area. Personally, if it is mainly for firewood that you are splitting down and assuming the trees/ branches are not more than 6", I think the Gomboy is enough and more portable. However, the Big Boy will cut through probably about 30% faster but is more expensive and larger. Hope that helps.

    • @urbanknifeguy

      Hi, the saws are definitely high quality and the outback (black) versions have thicker blades and a better coating. The handle is also better and anti-slip. Link for the Big Boy is here: amzn.to/4bC6qOb Thanks for watching!

    I have the Silky Big Boy AND the Gomboy. Excellent saws!! Personally, I don’t think the Big Boy would be necessary; I don’t see a reason to need to saw a log that big. It would be too heavy 2 move 🤔

    • @urbanknifeguy
      @urbanknifeguy  8 місяців тому +1

      Thanks! This size was to cut a working stump for my bushcraft camp. Heavy but could be rolled and carried.

    I have a silky ryoba and a nata. I was disappointed when then dropped their larger folding saws. It seems their going for a niche market rather than carpentry.

    • @urbanknifeguy
      @urbanknifeguy  8 місяців тому

      Which size larger saws did they drop? Thanks!
