A blade is the flat cutting edge of a knife.
Knife edge geometry refers to the shape of the cutting edges and the relief behind it. The three main types are Hollow, Taper and Flat..the name refers to the shape of the grinds which makes up the edge geometry.
The flat cutting part of a sword is known as the blade. It is designed for slicing and cutting, and its geometry, including its edge and profile, can vary depending on the type of sword and its intended use. The blade typically extends from the hilt to the tip and plays a crucial role in the sword's balance and effectiveness in combat.
Pliers are not the same as cable cutters. Pliers have flat, grooved jaws. Cable cutters have jaws that are both ground to a bevel edge so where they meet is a sharp cutting edge.
Yes, a chisel typically has a flat blade. The flat edge is designed for cutting, shaping, or carving materials like wood, metal, or stone. Different types of chisels may have variations in blade shape and width, but the flat blade is a defining characteristic of most chisels.
The edges of a flat chisel are sharpened by using a sharpening stone or a grinder to create a sharp and precise cutting edge. This sharp edge allows the chisel to make clean and accurate cuts in wood, improving its effectiveness in woodworking tasks.
A scraper is basically a flat rectangular piece of high carbon steel roughly the size of a 3x5 index card. The edge of the scraper is burnished, or rounded over to form a hook. This hook is then pushed or pulled across the surface of the wood to remove fine shavings. This type of scraper is used by woodworker's and cabinet makers, for the removal of paint, glue, etc. is another tool all-together. For the card scraper, I've listed a couple of sites below for futher explanation and a tutorial on sharpening them. * http://www.woodzone.com/articles/scrapers/index.htm * http://thewoodwhisperer.com/episode-14-barely-scraping-by/
Aside from being sharp, the blade shape of a katana supports a good cut. The profile of the blade is that it is convex, and this moves material being cut out and away from the edge of the instrument. Picture the knife as a wedge, but one where the sides are not flat. Rather, they sides are "rounded out" instead of being flat or concave. This helps explain why the blade of the katana is so good at cutting.
The flat chisel is a popular woodworking tool, for cutting and shaping wood
Peripheral cutting refers to a machining process where the cutting tool engages the workpiece along its outer edge or periphery. This technique is commonly used in operations like milling and turning, where the tool removes material from the surface to shape or finish the part. The process allows for efficient material removal and can produce precise dimensions and surface finishes. It contrasts with other cutting methods, such as face cutting, where the tool engages the material from a flat surface.
