SLICINGCUT
How it works
Results
The sharp upward curve of the blade causes the leading edge to “slice”
as it cuts into wood.
The off-centered pivot bolt doubles this slicing motion increasing the
length of the blade which is used for cutting.
• Less cutting force required.
• Clean cut without damaging the plants.
• Less wear and longer blade life.
• Fewer broken blades.
Why it works
Imagine cutting a loaf of bread. No matter how sharp the blade, if you
attempt to cut without slicing, the bread compresses and becomes
harder to cut, therefore requiring more pressure which damages the
loaf beyond repair.
Bread and live wood are similar in that they can both be cut more
efficiently if a slicing motion is added to the downward pressure.
