Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The team at 'The Butcher's Block' in Hereford found their existing saw blades were losing their edge too quickly, which resulted in messy cuts on their free-range pork and lamb. They needed a reliable replacement that could handle a demanding pace without frequent changes.
"We swapped to these Olympia AE079 blades and the difference was immediate. The cuts are cleaner, there's less tearing, and the team can work faster and more safely. A simple change that's made a big difference to our prep."
Michael Edwards – Owner
The switch resulted in a noticeable reduction in product wastage and helped them keep up with demand during their busiest weekend periods.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always wear protective gloves when handling a new or used saw blade.
- Ensure the teeth of the blade are pointing away from the handle, in the direction of the cut.
- Secure the blade onto the saw's retaining pins and tighten the tensioner until the blade is taut but not over-strained.
- Give the blade a gentle 'ping' with your finger; a high-pitched sound indicates good tension.
Keeping It Going
- After each use, carefully wipe the blade clean with a sanitised cloth to remove debris.
- Always dry the blade thoroughly before storage to prevent any potential corrosion.
- Store the saw with its blade guard on, or in a designated safe place away from busy work areas.
- Replace the blade as soon as you notice it requires more effort to cut, as a dull blade is a safety hazard.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this blade suitable for cutting frozen meat?
A: Yes, this stainless steel blade is robust enough for cutting through both fresh and frozen meat and bone.
Q: Will this fit any brand of bow saw?
A: It is specifically designed as a replacement for the Olympia CG994 bow saw to ensure a perfect fit and tension. Compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed.
Q: How should I clean the blade?
A: Clean it carefully with warm, soapy water and a cloth after use. Always sanitise and dry it completely before storing to maintain hygiene and prevent rust.
Q: How often will I need to replace my blade?
A: This depends entirely on usage. In a high-volume butcher shop, it might be weekly or bi-weekly. For less frequent use, it could last for months. Replace it as soon as cutting requires more effort.
Q: What does a Rockwell hardness of 35° mean?
A: It indicates a balance between hardness for a sharp edge and flexibility to prevent the blade from becoming brittle and snapping under tension.
Q: Is the material food-safe?
A: Yes, the blade is made from stainless steel, which is the industry standard for food-safe equipment due to its non-porous and corrosion-resistant properties.
Q: Can this blade be sharpened?
A: For safety and performance, it is generally not recommended to sharpen bow saw blades. They are designed to be replaced once they become dull.
Q: What is the exact length of this blade from pin to pin?
A: The overall length is 365mm (approx. 14"), designed to fit a frame that uses a 300mm / 12" cutting blade measurement.
The Unseen Advantage: Consistency in Every Cut
A simple component like a spare blade rarely gets the spotlight, but its impact on your business is huge. This isn't just about replacing a worn part; it's about maintaining your operational standards. A consistently sharp, reliable Olympia AE079 bow saw blade translates directly into better business outcomes. It means less product waste from ragged, inefficient cuts, which protects your profit margins. It enhances safety in the kitchen, as a sharp blade is a safe blade, requiring less force and reducing the chance of slippage. Furthermore, the quality of your cuts directly reflects on your brand, whether it's a perfectly portioned steak on a plate or a clean joint in a display counter. Investing in a dependable replacement blade is a small, strategic decision that pays dividends in efficiency, safety, and the professional reputation you work so hard to build.
Explore more from Deglon SabatierWhy Rockwell Hardness Matters for Your Blade
You might see 'Rockwell Hardness 35°' in the specs and wonder what that actually means for your daily grind. Think of it as a measure of the steel's character. It’s a scientific test that tells you how well the material resists being dented or bent out of shape. For a bow saw blade, you don't want it to be rock hard. If it's too hard, it becomes brittle and could snap under the tension of the saw frame – a bit like a dry twig.
A rating of 35° hits the sweet spot. It means this blade is hard enough to hold a sharp edge for slicing through tough materials, but it also has enough flexibility to withstand the stresses of sawing. It’s the perfect balance of toughness and durability, ensuring the blade lasts longer and is safer to use in a demanding commercial environment.
