The Silky Pocketboy is Treetools most popular folding saw! We sell similar size saws from Felco, ARS, Corona and Bahco but they don't come close to the Pocketboy in terms of numbers sold. The two Pocketboy sizes (130 mm and 170 mm) and blade combination (medium, fine and extra fine) ..
A customer called the other evening to ask about the differences between the Fiskars splitting axes (there are subtle differences in the head and weight on each model). After much discussion I suggested he drop by to check the weight and 'feel' of each axe but he lived in Manukau ..

Like all Slikys, choosing which Zubat can be a daunting task: you have four size choices for a start and each saw has its own subtle characteristics. The two most common in the range are the Zubat 270 and the bigger 330. Urban arborists prefer the 270 - its a ..
Treetools had a climbing customer in the other day and discussion turned to kN (kilo-Newtons), fall factors and the shock force experienced by a climber in the event of a fall. I was certain I had seen a shock force calculator on the web but try as I might I ..
