The teeth protrude to the left and right, so that the saw cut (kerf) is wider than the blade width. (The term <i>set</i> describes how much the teeth protrude. The kerf may sometimes be wider than the set, depending on wobble and other factors.</figcaption></figure><p> The narrow channel left behind by the saw and (relatedly) the measure of its width is known as the <b>kerf</b>. As such, it also refers to the wasted material that is turned into sawdust, and becomes a factor in measurements when making cuts. For example, cutting an 8 foot (2.4 meter) piece of wood into 1 foot (30 cm) sections, with 1/8 inch (3 mm) kerf will produce only seven sections, plus one that is 7/8 inch (21 mm) too short when factoring in the kerf from all the cuts. The kerf depends on several factors: the width of the saw blade; the set of the blade's teeth; the amount of wobble created during cutting; and the amount of material pulled out of the sides of the cut. Although the term "kerf" is often used informally, to refer simply to the thickness of the saw blade, or to the width of the set, this can be misleading, because blades with the same thickness and set may create different kerfs. For example, a too-thin blade can cause excessive wobble, creating a wider-than-expected kerf. The kerf created by a given blade can be changed by adjusting the set of its teeth with a tool called a <a href="/wiki/Saw_tooth_setter" class="mw-redirect" title="Saw tooth setter">saw tooth setter</a>. The kerf left behind by a laser beam can be changed based on the laser's power and type of material being cut. </p><div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Toothed_saws">Toothed saws</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Saw&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Toothed saws"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A <b>toothed saw</b> or <b>tooth saw</b> has a hard toothed edge.

It is taken by setting the tip (or <b>point</b>) of one tooth at the zero point on a ruler, and then counting the number of points between the zero mark and the one-inch mark, inclusive (that is, including both the point at the zero mark and any point that lines up precisely with the one-inch mark). There is always one more point per inch than there are teeth per inch (e.g., a saw with 14 points per inch will have 13 teeth per inch, and a saw with 10 points per inch will have 9 teeth per inch). Some saws do not have the same number of teeth per inch throughout their entire length, but the vast majority do. Those with more teeth per inch at the toe are described as having incremental teeth, in order to make starting the saw cut easier.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>An alternative measurement of the frequency of teeth on a saw blade is <i>teeth per inch</i>.

In most modern serrated saws, the teeth are set, so that the kerf (the width of the cut) will be wider than the blade itself. This allows the blade to move through the cut easily without <i>binding</i> (getting stuck). The set may be different depending on the kind of cut the saw is intended to make. For example, a <a href="/wiki/Ripsaw" title="Ripsaw">ripsaw</a> has a tooth set that is similar to the angle used on a <a href="/wiki/Chisel" title="Chisel">chisel</a>, so that it rips or tears the material apart. A "flush-cutting saw" has no set on one side, so that the saw can be laid flat on a surface and cut along that surface without scratching it. The set of the blade's teeth can be adjusted with a tool called a <a href="/wiki/Saw_set" title="Saw set">saw set</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Other_toothed_saw_terms">Other toothed saw terms</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Saw&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Other toothed saw terms"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>Back: The edge opposite the toothed edge.</li> <li>Fleam: The angle of the faces of the teeth relative to a line perpendicular to the face of the saw.</li> <li>Gullet: The valley between the points of the teeth.</li> <li>Heel: The end closest to the handle.</li> <li>Rake: The <a href="/wiki/Rake_angle" title="Rake angle">angle</a> of the front face of the tooth relative to a line perpendicular to the length of the saw.
