Abstract
A saw blade including a body, a plurality of cutting teeth, and a plurality of gullets. The plurality of cutting teeth formed on the body. Each cutting tooth includes a first end and a second end. The plurality of gullets is formed between the plurality of cutting teeth. Each gullet having an opening defined between the first end of one tooth of the plurality of cutting teeth and the second end of an adjacent tooth of the plurality of cutting teeth. Each opening has an opening width and a gullet width. A ratio between he gullet width over the opening width is greater than or equal to 1.2:1.

A saw blade comprising:
- a body;
- a plurality of cutting teeth formed on the body, each cutting tooth including a first end and a second end;
- and
- a plurality of gullets formed between the plurality of cutting teeth, each gullet having an opening defined between the first end of one tooth of the plurality of cutting teeth and the second end of an adjacent tooth of the plurality of cutting teeth, each opening having an opening width, each gullet further having a gullet width;
- wherein a ratio between the gullet width over the opening width that is greater than or equal to 1.2:1.
A saw blade comprising:
- a body;
- a plurality of cutting teeth formed on the body, each cutting tooth including a tooth body having a first end and a second end;
- and
- a plurality of gullets formed between the plurality of cutting teeth, each gullet being generally circular and having a gullet width that is greater than an opening width of an opening between adjacent tooth bodies, the opening width being measured between the first end and the second end of the adjacent tooth bodies.
A method of manufacturing a saw blade, the method comprising:
- providing a saw blade body;
- forming a plurality of cutting teeth in the saw blade body, each cutting tooth including a first end and a second end such that an opening width is defined between the first end of one cutting tooth and the second end of an adjacent cutting tooth;
- and
- forming a plurality of gullets in the saw blade body between the plurality of cutting teeth, each gullet having a gullet width such that a ratio of the gullet width over the opening width is greater than or equal to 1.2:1
