A ring forming step includes welding opposite ends of a band saw blade including a body part having a band shape, and a tooth part including a plurality of teeth formed on one side part of the body part, to form a ring shape. A polishing step includes polishing an inner surface, an outer surface, and an end face on a side opposite to the tooth part in the ring-shaped band saw blade subjected to the ring formation. A tip tooth tip forming step includes positioning, after the polishing step, the ring-shaped band saw blade subjected to the ring formation by use of one of the inner surface and the outer surface, and the end face as references, joining a cutting tip to tooth tips of the plurality of teeth by welding, and polishing the joined cutting tip to form a tooth tip shape.

A wood cutting band saw blade includes a band having a continuous band portion and having on at least one length-wise edge a plurality of teeth. The plurality of teeth extend upward from the continuous band portion, and the length-wise edge extends in a horizontal direction. Each tooth includes a cutting edge and a back angle edge defining a tip. Each tooth also includes a gullet having a forward edge extending upward from a location at a lowest extent of the gullet to the back angle edge. The gullet further includes a rearward edge extending upward from a vertical level at the lowest extent of the gullet to a cutting edge of an adjacent tooth. The location at the lowest extent of the gullet is closer to the tip than to a tip of the adjacent tooth.

The disclosure relates to a saw tool for use with a multifunctional machine tool which can be driven in oscillation. The saw tool has at least one main axis, at least one main body, and at least one cutting arm arranged on the main body transversely to the main axis, the cutting arm having a first cutting region and a second cutting region starting from the main axis in a direction pointing away from the main body and running at least substantially perpendicular to the main axis, said cutting regions arranged one behind the other, and directly adjacent to each other. The second cutting region is arranged on the first cutting region, on a side of the first cutting region furthest from the main body, and has a greater mass than the first cutting region.

A reciprocating saw blade includes an elongated blade body extending along a blade axis and having a rear end, a front end, a cutting edge having a plurality of teeth, a non-cutting edge opposite the cutting edge; and a tang coupled to the rear end and configured to be received in a blade holder of a powered reciprocating saw. The cutting edge includes inclined and declined cutting edge portions. The inclined cutting edge portion extends away from the blade axis and toward the front end at an acute first angle and extends from a first tooth to a second tooth. The first tooth is closer to the rear end and closer to the blade axis than the second tooth. The declined cutting edge portion extends toward the blade axis and toward the front end at an acute second angle that is greater than the first angle and extends from a third tooth to the first tooth. The first tooth is closer to the front end and closer to the blade axis than the third tooth.

A band saw blade includes a body part made into a loop in an endless form at a joint part formed by welding, a blade part formed on one edge side of the body part, a first shot blasted part formed on at least one side plane of the body part, a second shot blasted part formed in a part of the first shot blasted par and visually recognized as a range having a surface state different from a surface state of the first shot blasted part, and an information part that is provided to the second shot blasted part and from which information can be acquired.

A manufacturing apparatus of a ring-shaped band saw blade for manufacturing the ring-shaped band saw blade including a tooth tip to which a hard cutting tip is joined. The manufacturing apparatus includes a rotatory moving section that provides rotatory movement of the ring-shaped band saw blade including a body part having a band shape and a tooth part including a plurality of teeth formed on one side part of the body part; a surface polishing section that polishes an inner surface and an outer surface of the body part in the ring-shaped band saw blade in the rotatory movement provided by the rotatory moving section; and an end face polishing section that polishes an end face of the body part on a side opposite to the tooth part in the ring-shaped band saw blade in the rotatory movement provided by the rotatory moving section.

A method of using a cutting blade on a portable band saw. The method includes the step of providing a portable band saw. A cutting blade is provided which includes at least one tooth that has a linear rake face with a positive rake face angle transitioning uninterruptedly from a tip of said cutting tooth into a single radius to define a portion of said cutting tooth. The portable band saw is used to cut and object with the cutting blade of the portable band saw in a single continuous linear cut direction.

A recip blade has a cutting edge defining a cutting direction and a repeating pattern of cutting teeth. Each repeating pattern includes (i) a leading tooth with respect to the cutting direction that includes a rake face defining a first rake angle that is negative, and (ii) a trailing tooth following the leading tooth with respect to the cutting direction that includes a rake face defining a second rake angle that is less negative than the first rake angle.

An oscillating blade including a shank having a tool mounting end and a blade end, the shank defining a longitudinal shank axis extending from an oscillation axis of the tool mounting end, the longitudinal shank axis defining a longitudinal direction. The oscillating blade also includes a first shank extension extending from the blade end in a first lateral direction and having a first cutting edge directed in a first cutting direction, and a second shank extension extending from the blade end in a second lateral direction and having a second cutting edge directed in a second cutting direction. The oscillating blade also includes a shaving edge disposed on the blade end. The first shank extension is spaced from the second shank extension in the longitudinal direction, and the shaving edge is at least partially disposed between the first shank extension and the second shank extension in the longitudinal direction.
