Abstract: A saw blade contains a body, in particular of a hard material, having a cutting portion. The cutting portion has a length and a width and being provided along its length with a plurality of teeth which are formed by a plurality of grooves. Each tooth being formed by at least two grooves. There is a first plurality of grooves, the grooves of which are parallel to each other along a first direction and in that there is a second plurality of grooves, the grooves of which are parallel to each other in a second direction. The first direction and the second direction are inclined to each other such that along the length of the cutting portion at least one of the grooves of the first plurality of grooves is intersected by a groove of the second plurality of grooves.

Abstract: A cutting element is configured such that it may be used to cut grass stalks or other organic stalk materials in a vegetation area. The cutting element has a main body formed from a main body material and cutting bodies formed on opposite sides of the main body which have a longer service life in the region of the cutting body relative to the prior art. At least one of the cutting bodies is formed by a cutting body material which is distinct from the main body material, is sintered and is harder than the main body material. The sintered cutting body material is formed by a hard metal or cermet and the higher hardness thereof is based on hard material particles present therein.
