Hishika 150mm Hand-Forged Japanese Beechwood Handle and Sheath Mini Pruning Saw (Rattan-Wrapped Straight Handle) with Heavy-Duty Leather Belt Holster Set [Hand-Tempered Steel / Wooden Scabbard Compatible / Resharpenable / Made in Miki, Japan]

Description

Forged in Miki—Japan’s historic heartland of master sawmaking—by Hishika Industry (established in 1947), this premium set combines the 150mm Hand-Forged Mini Pruning Saw featuring a classic Rattan-Wrapped Straight Handle (Fuji-maki) with a heavy-duty leather belt holster custom-engineered to store the saw complete with its wooden scabbard.

Measuring 270mm in total length, the compact fixed-blade saw excels at precision pruning in tight foliage, orchard management, and detailed branch work where larger saws cannot navigate. The natural rattan wrapping offers a comfortable, ultra-tactile grip that prevents slipping even with wet hands or gloves. Each high-carbon steel blade undergoes full-blade hand-tempering by master smiths, providing optimal steel flexibility, sharp tooth bite, and effortless stroke action. Featuring Hishika's Back-Tapered Thin Blade Geometry (Sen-Togi), the blade spine is ground thinner than the cutting edge to eliminate binding in green wood, leaving surgical, mirror-smooth cuts that protect tree health. The blade is fully resharpenable (Metate) for a lifetime of professional service.

The included genuine leather holster (255mm total length) mounts directly to standard work belts. It holds the wooden scabbard snugly to prevent wood cracking while enabling smooth, one-handed draw and storage in the field. An open-bottom design ensures sawdust and organic debris fall through naturally for effortless maintenance.

Note for Users: Hand-tempered high-carbon steel blades are precision tools. Apply force exclusively on the PULL stroke without twisting.
