Abstract
A band saw blade can include a blade body having a longitudinally extending back edge along one side and a cutting edge defined by multiple teeth on an opposing side of the blade body. Each tooth can have tip, a rake face disposed along the front side of the tooth, and a relief surface disposed along the opposing rear side of the tooth. A gullet can be disposed between each pair of teeth and can extend from the rake face of one tooth to the relief surface of the next adjacent tooth in the cutting direction. A notch can be defined by the junction of the rake face and the gullet. The rake face can be disposed at a positive angle and with the notch can promote the movement of swarf generated by the tip cutting a work piece into the gullet.
