A bimetal band saw blade has a cutting edge with a plurality of cutting teeth defining repeating, variable pitch patterns and variable set patterns within pitch patterns. Each relatively heavy set tooth defines a first primary clearance angle, and each unset and relatively light set tooth defines a second primary clearance angle. Each first primary clearance angle is less than or equal to about 20, each second primary clearance angle is less than or equal to about 25, and each first primary clearance angle is within the range of about 4 to about 6 less than each second primary clearance angle. Each unset or light set tooth defines a greater gullet area than a respective heavy set tooth and/or a finer pitch than the respective heavy set tooth. Each tooth defines a positive rake angle within the range of about 3 to about 10.

A saw blade contains a body, in particular of a hard material, having a cutting portion. The cutting portion has a length and a width and being provided along its length with a plurality of teeth which are formed by a plurality of grooves. Each tooth being formed by at least two grooves. There is a first plurality of grooves, the grooves of which are parallel to each other along a first direction and in that there is a second plurality of grooves, the grooves of which are parallel to each other in a second direction. The first direction and the second direction are inclined to each other such that along the length of the cutting portion at least one of the grooves of the first plurality of grooves is intersected by a groove of the second plurality of grooves.

A saw blade can include a blade body having a cutting edge defined by multiple teeth. The teeth can be disposed in a repeating pattern including a raker tooth, a first set tooth having a light offset to a right side of the blade body, a second set tooth having a heavy offset to the left side of the blade body, a second raker tooth, a third set tooth having a light offset to the left side, and a fourth set tooth having a heavy offset to the right side of the blade body. Each tooth can include a tip, rake face, gullet having a gullet depth, and one or more clearance surfaces. The pitch distance and gullet depth of the heavy offset teeth can be less than the pitch distances and gullet depths of the remaining teeth to provide an increased amount of strength for the heavy offset teeth.

A saw blade includes an elongated body with a working edge extending along a longitudinal axis. A first strip composed of carbide or cermet and including at least one first full cutting tooth is coupled to a first portion of the working edge by a first weld fusion zone composed of a ductile material. The first strip is set in a first direction at a first angle out of a plane of the body by a first bend in the first weld fusion zone. A second strip composed of carbide or cermet and including at least one second full cutting tooth is coupled to a second portion of the working edge by a second weld fusion zone composed of a ductile material. The second strip is set in a second direction, opposite the first direction, at a second angle out of the plane of the body by a second bend in the second weld fusion zone.

A reciprocating saw blade is provided including a blade cutting edge including a plurality of teeth and a plurality of gullets. At least a portion of the plurality of teeth each includes a rake face, a relief face, a tooth cutting edge, and at least one non-cutting tooth edge extending on a first side face transverse to the rake face and the relief face, and a second side face opposite the first side face and transverse to the rake face and the relief face, a first relief-side edge at a junction between the first side face and the relief face, and a second relief-side edge at a junction between the second side face and the relief face. At least one of the first and second relief-side edges includes a modified portion extending rearward from the rake face.

A hole saw with a substantially cylindrical body, a center axis of rotation, an inner surface, and an outer surface. A cutting edge defined by a plurality of ground set teeth arranged in a pattern includes a first group of teeth oriented at angles toward the center axis of rotation intermixed with a second group of teeth oriented at an angle away from the center axis of rotation. The teeth angled away from the center axis of rotation are oriented at substantially the same angle and the teeth angled toward the center axis of rotation are oriented with each progressive tooth of the first group have an increasing angle relative to a prior tooth of the first group.

A handsaw is provided with which chip clogging can be reduced significantly, the pitch of the tooth points can be made fine, the cut end face, called top edge, of each tooth can be increased in area, and moreover, cutting resistance is kept small and good cutting performance is ensured. The handsaw has a plurality of saw teeth arranged on a longitudinal edge (21) of a saw blade (20). The saw teeth are configured as a combination of crosscutting teeth (X) of triangular or trapezoidal prism shape and ripping teeth (Y) of parallelogram-based prism shape. The prism-shaped teeth constituting the crosscutting teeth (X) and the ripping teeth (Y) are configured such that at least adjacent prism-shaped teeth rise at a same rising angle () from an edge surface (21a) of the longitudinal edge (21) of the saw blade (20), to cause a space (S) between the adjacent prism-shaped teeth to be constant in a rising direction in which the teeth rise.

A reciprocating saw blade that includes an elongated blade body defining an inner end and a distal end, a cutting edge located on one side of the blade body and extending between the inner and distal ends thereof and a tang located at the inner end of the blade body. The tang projects from the blade body at an acute angle relative to a line tangent to an inner end of the cutting edge. The cutting edge includes a portion defining a substantially curved contour and optionally can include at least one further portion defining a non-curved contour.

A cutting blade includes a body defining a longitudinal axis, an attachment portion coupled to the body, the attachment portion configured to be coupled to a power tool, and a cutting portion extending along an edge of the body parallel to the longitudinal axis, the cutting portion including a plurality of cutting teeth. Each cutting tooth includes a tip and a rake face extending from the tip, and each cutting tooth also includes a carbide insert that forms at least the tip of the cutting tooth. At least part of the cutting portion is deflectable relative to the body.

A method (100) of producing toothed blades from a strip material (200, 250) is disclosed. The method (100) comprises: cutting the strip material using combined laser cutting (102a) and mechanical machining (104a) or using waterjet cutting (102b) to form a plurality of teeth in an edge of the strip material (200, 250), wherein the cutting is controlled to cut each of the teeth using a flexible programmable geometry. A toothed blade production line (300, 400) arranged to produce toothed blades from a strip material using the method is also disclosed.
