Amana A.G.E. 14 Inch Saw Blade For Versatile Cutting

Amana A.G.E. 14 inch saw blade gives a 14 inch diameter cutting option with a 1 inch arbor, so it fits table and radial arm saw setups that use this shaft size and need this larger diameter capacity. The blade carries 70 teeth, which provides a fine tooth presentation to the material and supports smoother cuts when trimming or sizing parts. Its circular saw blade design is built for table and radial arm saw applications, so it matches common stationary shop workflows. The blade is part of the A.G.E. Series, so it follows that line's focus on woodworking use. Identified as manufacturer part 614704, it can be ordered and matched precisely to drawings or existing tooling lists when repeat performance is required.

Cutting Features That Support Clean Results

• The blade handles general trimming and crosscutting of hardwood and softwood, plywood and composition materials, so one setup can process mixed wood panels and solids without swapping blades between passes.
• It also excels at cutting single or double-sided plastic-laminated material, letting the same blade move from raw core stock to laminated work where surface finish is critical.
• The blade leaves a smooth, clean, chip-free finish on the top and bottom edges, which reduces follow-up sanding or edge repair on laminate or veneered parts.
• The blades in this series feature a high tooth count, the triple-chip grind and a 10 degree hook angle that balance feed effort against finished cut quality in routine shop throughput.
• Alternate Top Bevel (ATB) grind is used for cross-cutting, cut-off and trimming, so end grain and panel edges are sheared cleanly across the workpiece.
• Triple Chip Grind (TCG) is described as perfect for hard, abrasive materials like non-ferrous metals, hardwoods and plastics, providing a tooth form that stands up better when cutting tougher stock.

Combination Grind Details For Ripping And Crosscuts

The application notes state this blade is designed for ripping and cross-cutting natural woods, so the tooth geometry is arranged to work with both along-grain and cross-grain cuts in the same tool. Teeth consist of four ATB followed by one square raker, creating a combination grind pattern that first scores fibers and then cleans out the kerf. Large gullets in the saw body allow for deeper cuts and improved chip ejection despite short pitch, which helps clear chips when taking more aggressive passes. A 15 degree hook angle is specified for the combination grind, shaping how the tooth enters the material during both ripping and crosscutting work.

Where This Combination Grind Saw Blade Excels

Saw Blade For Hardwood, Softwood, And Laminates

The web description explains that this blade handles general trimming and crosscutting of hardwood and softwood, plywood and composition materials, so it suits shops processing both solid lumber and engineered sheet goods. It also excels at cutting single or double-sided plastic-laminated material, which means it can move onto laminate-faced panels where edge chipping would normally be a concern. The blade leaves a smooth, clean, chip-free finish on the top and bottom edges, a useful trait when both faces of a panel need to be presentable straight off the saw. The combination of ATB grind for cross-cutting, cut-off and trimming and TCG described as perfect for hard, abrasive materials like hardwoods and plastics gives the tooth line flexibility across different stock types handled on the same saw.

Geometry That Balances Feed Effort And Finish

The blades in this series feature a high tooth count, the triple-chip grind and a 10 degree hook angle for what is described as a successful compromise between feed effort and cut finish, so operators can maintain reasonable feed rates while still getting clean edges. The application note calls out a 15 degree hook for the combination grind, which affects how assertively the tooth pulls into the material and supports both ripping and cross-cutting in natural woods. Teeth are arranged as four ATB followed by one square raker, so fibers are scored before the raker tooth clears the groove, helping keep the kerf accurate. Large gullets in the saw body allow for deeper cuts and improved chip ejection despite short pitch, which supports thicker workpieces without overwhelming the gullets. The blade body is fitted with a copper plug to reduce noise and run cooler, and this thermal and sound control feature helps the tool stay more stable during extended cutting sessions.
