It is called "set" in the teeth. It takes a the sawdust out of the cutting surface so the saw will not bind as much.

What are the parts of an handsaw?

The metal part as a whole is called the sawplate. The part of the sawplate that is furthest from the handle is called the toe. The part that is nearest the handle is called the heel. Some saws have a metal part that is attached to the back of a sawplate to reinforce it. This is simply called the back (hence the name backsaw). Opposite the back is the toothline, made up of teeth. This is the part that does the cutting. The areas in between the teeth are called gullets. The teeth are pushed alternately side -to-side. This determines the kerf of the saw (how wide of a cut line you will make). On saws meant to cut across the grain of the wood (crosscut saws), the teeth are each sharpened with a beveled cutting edge much like a knife. The angle of that bevel is called the fleam.


Which common tooth patterns can be found on crosscut saws?

Teeth on a crosscut saw both cut the wood and release the wood between them. Saws have two rows of cutting edges, and release wood fibers on each side of the kerf. Tooth patterns for saws include Plain (Peg Tooth), M Tooth, Great American, Champion, Perforated-Lance, and Lance Tooth.

What is a Mortice and Tenon joint?

Mortise and tenon A square hole with a square peg. If you look at a wooden table or chair. The leg has the mortise and the side rails have the tenon. The mortise is a rectangular hole slightly smaller than the width and thickness of the rail. On the rail, it extends past the visible length probably about 1 inch. This varies depending on the construction. This extension is between 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch smaller on each side than the rail. It fits into the mortise. Makes for a very strong joint. Mortise and tenon joints are also used in post and beam homes and timber frame homes. As the most common timber framing joint, the mortise & tenon is versatile and functional. It is used to fasten connectors, posts, collar ties, struts, etc. The tenon can vary in size from 1-1/2" thick by 4" long to 3" thick by 10" long, depending on the load requirements of a particular joint. It is held tight by hardwood pegs.
