What knife do you use to cut Tri-Tip?

To cut the beef tri-tip, first position your slicing knife, like Cutco's 6-3/4" Petite Carver, so that it's cutting across the grain. Slicing in this direction will shorten the meat fibers for a tender bite.

How do you cut wood with the grain?

Cutting with the grain is fairly straightforward, with the main trick being identifying the grain in the first place.

1. Inspect the wood and determine which way the grain lines are pointing. ...
2. Place your saw, knife, wedge or axe into a position so it cuts along the same axis as the lines in the wood.

Is used to cut wood across the grain?

The ripsaw is only used to cut wood in the same direction as the grain. The ripsaw makes a very rough and ragged cut when used to cut across the grain. The crosscut saw is a better all-purpose saw since you can cut with or against the grain.

What is a bevel cut?

A bevel is an angled cut relative to the face of the material. This can be an angled cut along the entire side of a plank of wood, or cut at the end of the wood.

How do you cut plywood without it splintering?

Always use a zero-clearance insert. No matter what tool you're using, the best way to reduce tear-out is to surround the blade or bit with a zero-clearance surface. This is equally important on the band saw, drill press, miter saw, or table saw.

What cuts faster a blade with a lot of small teeth or a blade with a few large teeth?

Saw blades with fewer teeth will cut faster and more aggressively, but generally produce somewhat rougher finishes.
