Abstract:

Blade assemblies for reciprocating wallboard tools and methods for cutting wallboard are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the blade assembly includes first and second fingers attachable to a cutting tool, and a reciprocating cutting member between the first and second fingers. The cutting member can have a body pivotally coupled to the first and second fingers, and a blade projecting from the body. In one embodiment, the blade can have a top surface with an arcuate portion having a generally constant radius defining a cutting surface that is at least approximately coterminous with a distal end. In another embodiment, the blade can have a top surface with an arcuate portion having a radius of greater than approximately 2 inches. In another embodiment, the distal end of the blade can have a nose with a radius of at least approximately 0.3 inch. In another embodiment, the blade can also include a tail projecting away from the top surface. The tail is configured to follow the framing while the blade assembly is cutting.
