Abstract
A saw blade has a series of triangular saw teeth, each tooth having a cutting edge and back edge joined by a tip edge with a cutting angle tapered rearwardly from the front cutting edge. The cutting angles of the cutting edges are progressively reduced from the leading end to the trailing end. Additionally, the teeth may be formed of a combination of laterally projected teeth and straight teeth.
Claims1
In a hand-saw, a saw blade having saw teeth including cutting edges whose cutting angles are progressively reduced from a leading end portion to a trailing end portion of said blade, each cutting edge having a cutting angle at said leading portion of said saw blade in the range of 16.degree. to 17.degree., a cutting angle at an intermediate portion thereof in the range of 12.degree. to 13.degree., and a cutting angle at said trailing portion thereof in the rainge of 8.degree. to 9.degree., a truncated, rearwardly tapered tip edge traversing the full width of each saw tooth having an angle on the order of 30.degree., a ridge line formed between each said tip edge and said cutting edge, said ridge line being on the order of 40.degree. to 45.degree., said tip edge joining each cutting edge and back edge, and the included angle between said back edge and said ridge line being less than the included angle between said cutting edge and said ridge line.
