"Requires periodic blade replacement when teeth become dull, as impulse-hardened teeth cannot be filed. Requires rust-prevention oiling (Camellia oil) after use."
Failure Threat Matrix[1,2]
| Failure Mode | Likelihood | Est. Onset | Mitigation Strategy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tooth snapping | Medium | Random | Apply pressure only on the pull stroke; do not push or twist the blade while engaged in wood. |
| Surface oxidation (Rust) | High (if uncleaned) | Random | Wipe blade clean and apply a thin coat of mineral or camellia oil after every use. |
| Blade kinking | Low | Random | Ensure workpieces are properly secured to prevent binding that causes the thin steel to flex and kink. |
