Abstract: The invention relates to a blade (1) consisting of a carrier member (7) and a foil (5) of amorphous metal joined to the carrier member via an adhesive layer (9), said amorphous metal forming the cutting edge (3) of the blade. The cutting edge (3) of the blade is formed by a one-sided ground section extending over the carrier material as well as the amorphous metal. The use of the foil (5) of amorphous metal allows the manufacture of an inexpensive blade having a high sharpness and a, with respect to the blade body, exactly defined position of the cutting edge (3).
