Silky · Bigboy 2000 Outback 360
Large folding saw for more cutting length – without stepping into the Katanaboy class The Bigboy 2000 Outback 360 combines a 360 mm blade length with coarse 6.5 teeth and remains foldable. It is aimed at users who find compact Gomboy models too small and a very large two-handed saw too bulky.
Purchase decision: The Bigboy is especially worthwhile for regular, heavier wood. For a few thin branches, it is unnecessarily large.

Black-Raptor classification
At around 478 g and about 405 mm folded, the Bigboy 2000 Outback is not a minimalist tool. Its advantage lies in the long usable pull stroke and the coarse teeth: less hectic movements, more material removal, and more reserve than smaller folding saws. However, it takes noticeably more space in the backpack or vehicle setup.
Fits well / fits less well


Fits well if … … you regularly cut medium to thicker branches, want a large folding hand saw, and consciously plan 360 mm blade length as a performance reserve.


Fits less well if … … your focus is on ultralight trekking, very small branches, or maximum two-handed cutting power. Then a smaller Gomboy or a Katanaboy is usually more suitable.


Features with practical impact


360 mm blade More usable cutting length than typical pocket saws. This allows longer, controlled strokes and reduces unnecessary direction changes.


6.5 teeth per 30 mm The coarse teeth prioritise material removal. It is designed for work speed
meant, not for particularly fine surfaces.


Outback version The available product data lists nickel/tin coating and arbor composite handle as features of the Outback variant. The practical benefit lies in rugged outdoor orientation and grippy handling.


Japanese pull saw principle Working pressure is applied on the pull. On the return stroke, it is relieved; this keeps the long blade more in line and reduces stress from bending.


Limits, disadvantages & avoiding bad purchases

Bigger is not automatically better. If you mostly cut thin branches, carrying the Bigboy means unnecessary extra saw weight. For very hard wood, the Katanaboy class might be more sensible.
The long, slender blade is not meant for levering. If the cut jams, relieve the wood instead of pushing sideways or forcefully bending the blade back.

Technical data with practical interpretation


Blade length 360 mm – plenty of stroke for medium to heavier cutting work.


Teeth 6.5 teeth per 30 mm – coarse and designed for fast material removal.


Packed size Folded approx. 405 × 80 × 20 mm; unfolded approx. 760 × 90 × 20 mm. More a backpack or vehicle tool than a pocket solution.


Weight Approx. 478 g – noticeably more than compact folding saws, but fitting the cutting class.


Kerf Approx. 1.7 mm – designed for quick progress rather than the finest cut surface.


Safe use & care
Start the first strokes carefully, apply working pressure only on the pull and avoid sideways jamming. Relieve the cut if the wood jams. After use, remove resin and dirt and store the saw dry.

FAQ
Bigboy or Gomboy? Bigboy if blade length and cutting power matter more. Gomboy if packed size and weight count more. Bigboy or Katanaboy? The Bigboy is the more portable intermediate class. The Katanaboy is worth it if you regularly have larger cutting jobs. Why work only on the pull? Silky saws work as pull saws. Pressure on the return stroke increases the risk of bending and jamming with long, slender blades.

Black Raptor · honest buying advice
The Bigboy 2000 Outback 360 is strong when a normal folding saw is too small and a Katanaboy too large. It fills exactly this gap by offering a lot of cutting stroke with still reasonable portability.
