Abstract
A metalcutting tool, such as a band saw blade, is formed by providing a body having at least one tooth, the tooth including a cutting tip having a rake face, a clearance face intersecting the rake face to form a main cutting edge therewith, and a pair of side faces intersecting the rake face to form respective side cutting edges therewith. The main cutting edge and the side cutting edges are subjected to an abrasive rounding operation, and the side cutting edges are thereafter ground to remove any roundness produced therein during the rounding operation.
