Abstract
A straight saw blade adapted for rapid reciprocation, the blade being tapered in cross-section across a substantial part of its width such that it is thinnest at or near the points of the teeth and substantially thicker throughout the portion adjacent to the back. The blade is stiff enough to be operated from one end, without tension.

A straight saw blade adapted for reciprocation without tension in a carcass splitting saw, comprising a back portion having a back edge and an integral transversely tapering portion integral with the back portion and having a cutting edge parallel to the back edge, the back portion having a substantially uniform thickness, the tapering portion having its greatest thickness at its line of junction with the back portion and being hollow ground with its least thickness along a line slightly spaced from its cutting edge, saw teeth being formed in said cutting edge, each said tooth being adapted to remove a portion of the material being sawed, and the width of the back portion being no greater than about half of the distance from the back edge to the base of the teeth.
