Guide to Understanding Saw Blades and Terms: ATB / Alternate Top Bevel - Tool grind where the bevel alternates from left to right. ATB gives the cleanest crosscut in hard and soft wood or plywood. Hook - Angle of tooth relative to the blade radius determines aggressiveness of cut and work piece finish. Kerf - The width of a saw cut made in a board, the measured width of material removed by the passage of the saw blade. Carbide - Carbide alloy is composed of Cobalt and Tungsten. This alloy gives saw blades longer lasting tips, shaper cutting edges, and greater impact resistance. Grind: ATB - Alternate Top Bevel. Kerf: .106" Hook: 18Degree Carbide Grade: C2.
