Collection: Ipe Eater Circular Sawblades

INTELLIGENT DESIGN THAT REALLY PERFORMS

An incredible amount of engineering went into the tooth design of these blades to ensure clean cuts - not just when freshly sharpened (any blade will do that), but also as the blade wears.

Competitor's high-end blades rely on an alternate top bevel tooth pattern that concentrates all the cutting action on the tiny point at the top of each tooth.  Bearing the brunt of the cutting load, this point dulls very quickly and, no longer sharp enough to pierce, must tear its way through the wood.

Our "triple chip" tooth pattern is unique because, instead of relying on points to pierce, the blade uses edges to shave.  This produces exceptional life because the cutting workload is shared by much more of the tooth's metal (an entire edge instead of just a single point).  Also, the cutting style - shaving vs. piercing -  is less dulling and less reliant on sharpness to produce a clean cut.

 For maximum efficiency, our alternating teeth (one bevelled, the next square) shave off the middle, then the corners of the cutting groove.  This unique tooth pattern is displayed in the photo below:
