Abstract
The blade holder includes a mounting portion for attachment to the reciprocating plunger of a power saw. The blade holder also includes an integral exposed portion provided with a slot for receiving a substantial portion of the shank of the blade. The slot is dimensioned with respect to the blade shank such that an edge of the blade shank projects from the slot. The exposed portion of the blade holder includes an external surface in opposed relationship with the slot. A resiliently biased wedging washer engages the exposed edge of the blade and the external surface for holding the blade in place.
