ARS UV-40-1 saw blade
ARS UV-40-1 – original replacement saw blade
When is it worth replacing?
If the saw is noticeably slower, takes more effort for the same branch, or the edges of the kerf are ragged, the teeth have worn. On this blade the teeth are impulse-hardened, which means they cannot be re-sharpened: the hardened layer is very thin. When they wear, replacing the blade is the right answer, not filing.
