Abstract
A surgical sagittal saw blade with a static blade bar, an oscillating blade head and at least one drive rod disposed in the blade bar that pivots the blade head. The blade bar is formed with an opening located proximal to the distal end of the blade. A finger connected to a distal end of the drive rod is located above the drive rod so as to be seated in the opening in the blade bar. The finger extends forward of the drive rod over a base section of the blade head. A pin that extends from the finger pivotally connects the blade head to the finger and, by extension, to the drive rod.
