Saw blades designed for use as the cutting component of a manually operated reciprocating electric or pneumatic saw used to cut materials, objects, or anatomic structures. These devices typically consist of a detachable, toothed, straight or curved flat blade that is attached to a saw that includes a mechanism that generates a back and forth (i.e., reciprocating) motion. Reciprocating electric/pneumatic blades are mainly used in orthopedic surgery (e.g., to cut bones); dedicated blades are also available for saws intended for cutting cast.
