After a saw has been sharpened, it should be carefully laid flat on its side and the teeth rubbed down with a whetstone or smooth file to remove any feather edge that may be left by the file in sharpening. This gives a larger and better cutting edge to the saw. If the points only of the teeth are allowed to do the work, the action is a scratching and not a cutting one.
