It says in Jim Tolpin's Table Saw Magic by Jim Tolpin that the circular saw blade was invented in the mid-1800s. A woman was watching her husband sawing an awkward piece of wood. He was using a handsaw and finding it difficult. Suddenly his wife had an idea. She thought that instead of placing the cutting teeth of the saw blade along a straight line where they could cut only half the time, why not place them along the rim of a toothed wheel that would cut the wood continuously?
Hence, the circular saw blade was invented.
This type of saw blade is one of the most useful tools in any carpenter's kit. Since the time of invention, of course, the circular saw blade has been modified. With the use of new materials such as carbide tipped saws, which last longer than all-steel blades, and with the design of different tooh patterns, the circular saw blade offers a very quick method in woodcutting.
