swords
They are all parts of a sword, or sword-related terms. Scabbard - the sword's sheath. Blade - the cutting edge. Fuller - the groove running down the middle of the blade. Cross guard - the horizontal bar between handle and blade, to protect the hand. Pommel - the rounded end to the handle.

If you cross Bambi with a ghost you will get Bamboo.
The puzzle is: you have a chicken, fox and corn. You can't leave the chicken with the corn or the chicken will eat it. You can't leave the fox with the chicken or the fox will eat it. You have a river to cross and a boat that will carry you and one of the three. The order that you take them across is: 1) cross over with the chicken, 2) cross back empty, 3) cross over with the fox, 4) cross back with the chicken, 5) cross over with the corn, 6) cross back empty, 7 cross over with the chicken.
When you cross a camera and a goat you get a cheap shot.

First, it should be noted that swords were not normally made by one individual - several craftsmen would be involved in its manufacture. Swords and similar weapons were traded extensively throughout Europe in the medieval era, and while we assume nowadays that the average European peasant lived in their own village and never travelled far, there is in fact a vast body of evidence showing that internatonal trade was a widespread in the 14th and 15th centuries, as it is today. The main component, the blade, was generally produced in localised areas of specialisation - in Germany, the cities of Solingen and Passau were renowned for their blademaking, in Spain, the city of Toledo had a similar reputation. The blades were then shipped through Europe, via trade. In local areas they were then fitted with hilts according to local fashion and tastes by craftsmen called cutlers. The blade was made by forging, from a rough block of steel, a skilled swordsmith would shape a rough blade and tang from the red-hot steel, hammering in the shape of the tang, and the critical transition from blade to tang -done wrong, such a transition is a weak point which could break the sword in use. Once a basic shape was forged, with or without a fuller (groove in the blade) the soft steel blade would be passed on to shapers, who would then cut the blade's shape on large, water-wheel driven grindstones, and with scrapers and files, smoothing out the surface and shaping the taper on the blade, essential to making the blade handle well. the shaped blade would then be heat-treated, a process of heating the blade to glowing red hot, and plunging it into water to cool it rapidly. this process changes the molecular structure of the steel, making it extremely hard, but very brittle, like glass. This brittleness was then removed by putting it into a lower heat, and then allowing it to cool. this tempering process gives the steel the springy flexiability to withstand shock, but the hardness to hold a sharp edge. This tempered blade was then polished by another craftsman, to bring it to a fine finish, and to put an edge on it. The cutler, on receiving the blade, would create the hilt peices - the cross, that protects the hand, the grip, and the pommel, which balances the blade. The pommel and cross could be forged from steel or cast in bronze. In either case, the slot for the blade tang would be carefully filed to let the parts fit onto the blade, and then the surfaces would be ground, filed and polished to a fine finish. In some cases, the parts would be covered in gold or silver, or other precious materials, depending on who the sword was for. The grip would then be made, often from a hardwod like ash or beech covered in a thin peice of leather, but sometimes from more exotic materials like ivory or horn. the entire sword would then be assembled by the cutler - the cross, grip and pommel slid down the blade tang to a snug fit, and then the end of the blade cut to length, and then heated up and hammered over as a rivet to hold it firm. Lastly, then entire blade would be given to a scabbard-maker, who would take thin slats of wood, and carve the shape of the blade, line the wooden slats with wool, to hold the blade in place and protect it, and then wrap the thin wood slats in leather. the outer leather of the scabbard could then be cut to allow a complex set of loops and knots which would make the sword hang comfortably at the wearer's side. At long last, after the work of many people, a finished sword was made, ready for war.
Rip saw blades require a greater kerf to prevent the pinching of the blade by the stock.

A cross reference for the John Deere GY20850 mower blade includes several compatible part numbers from different manufacturers. Common cross-reference options include the Oregon 91-610 and the Stens 330-144 blades. It's always recommended to verify compatibility with your specific mower model before purchasing a replacement blade.
When using a cross-cutting blade on a power tool, it is important to wear safety goggles, gloves, and ear protection. Make sure the blade is properly installed and secured before use. Keep hands and fingers away from the blade and always use a push stick to guide the material being cut. Disconnect the power tool when changing the blade or making adjustments.
To properly cross cut on a table saw, follow these steps: Set the blade height to slightly higher than the thickness of the wood. Use a miter gauge or a crosscut sled to guide the wood through the blade. Position the wood against the fence and hold it firmly in place. Turn on the saw and push the wood through the blade with a steady motion. Use a push stick to keep your hands a safe distance from the blade. Wait for the blade to come to a complete stop before removing the cut piece.
On a circular saw, a combo blade is one that can be used for both ripping and cross-cutting wood. Ripping is done by cutting with the grain of the wood.Cross cutting refers to cutting across the grain.
Cross-cutting is a cutting technique where the blade moves across the grain of the material being cut. This differs from other cutting techniques, such as rip cutting, where the blade moves parallel to the grain. Cross-cutting produces a smoother and cleaner cut, while rip cutting is more efficient for cutting along the length of the material.
The bayonet for the 1917 .303 rifle, commonly known as the Pattern 1914 or P14 bayonet, features a long, double-edged blade that typically measures around 17 inches in length. The blade has a pointed tip and a fuller running along its length, which helps reduce weight. The grip is usually made of wood or metal, and the cross-guard is designed to protect the hand during use. Overall, the bayonet has a robust and utilitarian design, suitable for both combat and ceremonial purposes.
