A cutting or grinding tool includes a blade. The blade includes a disc-shaped base metal, cutting or grinding tips (edges) provided on a peak (outer circumferential edge) of the base metal, and a protruding coating on a side face of the base metal along the entire outer circumference of the base metal.

A circular cutting blade is configured for cutting meat when turned about a rotation axis in a predetermined cutting direction. The cutting blade has a peripheral blade edge defined between the first and second sides and a plurality of circumferentially disposed cutting knives. Each cutting knife includes first and second knife sides and an arcuate knife edge that constitutes a portion of the peripheral blade edge. Each knife edge is titled and rises, relative to the rotation axis, between a first blade-edge location corresponding to a minor blade radius and a second blade-edge location corresponding to a major blade radius such that, when the circular blade is rotating in the predetermined cutting direction and cutting a work piece, the work piece first encounters the first blade-edge location of each cutting knife before encountering the second blade-edge location of that cutting knife.

A self-rotating saw tooth and associated mount assembly for use in wood cutting, for example with the saw disc on a feller buncher. Each saw tooth configured to rotate about its own axis of rotation responsive to contact with wood during cutting. A saw disc specially configured for use with the self-rotating saw teeth.

In a circular saw blade, cutting teeth are joined to tooth bodies projecting outward in a radial direction at locations on an outer periphery of a disk-shaped metal base, gullets are provided between the tooth bodies so as to be recessed in the radial direction, radial clearance angles of side cutting edges of the cutting teeth are greater than 1 and less than 1, and a vibration prevention mechanism for preventing vibration of the metal base itself is provided. A ratio of a difference between a maximum value and a minimum value of pitches of the multiple cutting teeth to an average value of the pitches is 40% to 100%. A ratio of a difference between a maximum value and a minimum value of average values of depths of the adjacent gullets to an average value of depths of the gullets may be 20% to 100%.

A tooth is provided for a circular disc felling saw. The saw tooth may have a generally square pyramidal shape with tips at each of the four corners. Each of the tips has an enlarged tip region where the tip is stepped outward from the adjacent sides. The front face of the tip remains smoothly continuous. The enlarged, or built-out region extends rearwardly a greater distance than the lateral step out distance, and the rearward build-out portion is relieved on planes parallel to the main portions of the planar sides of the pyramid. The tooth may have both leading and trailing cutting tips. Either one or both of the primary and secondary cutting tips may include a wear insert, such as a ceramic wear insert.

A tipped saw blade includes a disc-shaped base metal and a plurality of tips. Each tip has an edge selected from a flat edge, a left beveled edge, and a right beveled edge. The tips are positioned circumferentially adjacent each other about a radially outer periphery of the base metal. Each flat edge includes a cutting edge that is oriented parallel to a thickness direction of the base metal. Each left beveled edge and each right beveled edge include a corresponding cutting edge that is inclined with respect to the thickness direction of the base metal. Cutting edge line lengths correspond to the lengths at which the cutting edges come in contact with a workpiece when cutting a workpiece. The cutting edges have the following relationship: (sum of cutting edge line lengths of the plurality of beveled edges)[((cutting edge line length of one of the flat edges)(kerf thickness+1.5))(number of the plurality of flat edges)1.2].

A tip saw has a disc-shape and comprises cutting blade pieces and a base metal. The cutting blade pieces are disposed on blade edges of the tip saw, and each of the cutting blade pieces extends to a reverse rotation side of the each of the cutting blade pieces along an outer side of the tip saw. Two of the cutting blade pieces adjacent to each other partially overlap in a circumferential direction along the outer side of the tip saw. The each of the cutting blade pieces has a cutting edge portion on a rotation side of the each of the cutting blade pieces and a support portion on the reverse rotation side of the each of the cutting blade pieces.
