4. Plywood Blade: Used for cutting plywood or
veneers. A 10" plywood blade will have 40-
80 teeth, a steep alternate top bevel tooth
profile and very shallow gullet. See Figure
35.
3. Combination Blade: Used for cutting with
and across the grain. A compromise
between a rip blade and a cross-cut blade, a
10" combination blade will typically have
between 40-50 teeth, an alternate top bevel
and flat or alternate top bevel and raker
tooth profile. The teeth are arranged in
groups of five. The gullets are small and
shallow within the groups of five teeth, simi-
lar to a cross-cut blade; then large and deep
between the groups, like a ripping blade.
See Figure 34.

2. Cross-cut Blade: Used for cutting across
the grain. 10" cross-cut blades have
between 60-80 teeth, alternate top bevel or
steep alternate top bevel tooth profiles, small
hook angle and a shallow gullet. See Figure
33.
