Saw teeth are designed to enable the saw to perform certain tasks. Panel-saw teeth have an edge that is square to the blade, which acts like a chisel to chop the grain and prevent clogging. The teeth of cross-cut saws are sharpened to a point, helping them to slice the grain. The three exposed sides of Japanese saw teeth are all sharp and produce a neat, slicing cut. All saw teeth have a certain amount of "set" (the amount by which the teeth are bent). Teeth along a blade are measured in points per inch (PPI)-the larger the PPI, the finer the cut, but the longer it will take.
