ARS Wood Handle Pruning Saw - 30cm Taper Ground Blade - Classic Professional Saw for Orchards & Arborists

Pruning in dense orchards or managing high-canopy maintenance requires a saw that strikes a balance between traditional ergonomics and modern cutting efficiency. The ARS is a classic arborist saw featuring a 30cm taper-ground blade and a comfortable hardwood pistol grip. Engineered in Japan, this lightweight tool delivers the surgical precision of TurboCut teeth, ensuring every cut is smooth and fast, while promoting rapid tree recovery by minimizing tissue damage and reducing the risk of infection.

Best For The commercial orchardist or professional arborist seeking a lightweight, traditional wood-handled saw for precision pruning and low-friction branch removal.

Key Features

• Resistance-Free Taper Ground Blade: The 30cm high-carbon steel blade is precision-tapered toward the spine, significantly reducing friction and drag, which allows for a smoother, faster cutting experience without binding in deep wood.

• ARS TurboCut Tooth Geometry: Features razor-sharp teeth engineered for a high-efficiency pull-stroke action, producing a surgical-grade finish on the wood that helps reduce the risk of plant infection and promotes faster healing.

• Ergonomic Wood Pistol Grip: The classic wooden handle is shaped for a secure, natural hand position, providing excellent control and leverage while reducing hand fatigue during prolonged orchard work.

• Hard Chrome Plated Protection: The blade surface is treated with hard chrome plating to provide superior resistance against rust and sap buildup, ensuring the tool remains easy to clean and maintains its low-friction performance season after season.

• Lightweight and Narrow Profile: At only 165g, the narrow blade design provides exceptional maneuverability in tight branch junctions, allowing for accurate pruning in dense canopies where wider saws cannot reach.

• Sustainable Maintenance: Built for a long commercial service life, the saw features fully replaceable blades, ensuring you can restore factory-grade sharpness and maximize your investment for years of reliable use.
