There is provided a manufacturing method of a band saw blade, including: (a) a step of forming a plurality of saw tooth mounts equipped with cutting blade portions at tip end parts, on a band shaped member at appropriate intervals; and (b) a step of carrying out a chamfering processing by a material removing processing method, on both side edges of a tooth bottom surface in a garret portion formed between respective ones of said saw tooth mounts. By this, there is provided a band saw blade having a plurality of saw tooth mounts equipped with cutting blade portions at tip end parts, on a band shaped member at appropriate intervals, wherein both side edges of a tooth bottom surface in a garret portion formed between respective ones of said saw tooth mounts are chamfering processed by a material removing processing method.

A method of manufacturing a reciprocating saw blade includes forming a body with a shank end configured to secure the blade with a reciprocating saw, a plunging end configured to enter a workpiece, and a cutting edge and opposite back edge extending between the shank end and the plunging end. The cutting edge is formed to include a plurality of teeth arranged in a repeating pattern that includes left set teeth and right set teeth, the plurality of additional teeth being substantially the same size as each other and as the third tooth, wherein the plurality of additional gullets are substantially the same size as each other, and wherein the enlarged first gullet is longer in an axial direction than each of the plurality of additional gullets.

The invention relates to a cutting blade, in particular to a scythe-like blade or to a spiral blade, for an apparatus for slicing food products, in particular for a high-speed slicer, the cutting blade rotating about an axis of rotation during a cutting operation, having a radially outer peripheral edge which acts as a blade edge and which has a curved extent about the axis of rotation; and having a plurality of cutting teeth which are arranged distributed following one another along the peripheral edge, wherein each cutting tooth has a blade edge which comprises a cutting surface and a cutting edge radially outwardly bounding the cutting surface; wherein each cutting surface extends inclined with respect to a spanned plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation and/or with respect to a cutting plane; and wherein the inclination of the cutting surfaces varies along the peripheral edge.

The present invention relates to a novel cutting apparatus capable of effectively cutting a material via movement in at least two different directions. In certain embodiments, the cutting apparatus comprises cutting elements with at least two cutting surfaces. Such cutting elements are capable of effectively penetrating a material when moved with an applied force in the direction that at least one cutting surface is oriented. Such cutting elements may be configured for use with a variety of cutting apparatus, including but not limited to chainsaws.
