Got this new Japanese folding saw yesterday.

Initial Counter Top Imperssions

This Silky Gomboy feels great in the hand. It is relatively light in weight and appears to be built quite solidly. The entire "frame" down to the handle is metal with rubber "over mold" on it. Plastic would be the top "black" portion of the locking mechanism.
