Hot-Blade Knives
Make straight cuts with the included blade. To cut curves, angles, and other shapes, mount the optional sling onto the knife. It includes a blade that can be bent once into any shape.

Friction-Cutting Band Saw Blades for Thin Metal and Rubber
Used in extremely fast saws, these blades move at speeds up to 15,000 sfpm. to generate enough heat to melt and cut through hard sheet metal and rubber. Their unique tooth shape increases heat by scooping in more air to burn up the material. By melting the material, this blade can cut through hard sheet metal and rubber, while other band saw blades vibrate and warp the material being cut. Made from carbon steel with added silicon, they withstand high temperatures and resist wear.
These blades are thin and flexible for making both complex curved cuts and long, straight cuts. Choose more teeth per inch for a smooth cut; choose fewer teeth per inch for fast, rough cutting. All have a welded seam and are ready to install on vertical band saws.
