Baring the Teeth
Saw teeth are measured by the number of tooth points per inch (tpi). The fewer the teeth, the more aggressive the blade; the more teeth, the finer cut. Most saw teeth have "set," which means they tilt alternately left and right to make a saw cut (kerf) that's wider than the blade, keeping it from binding.
