“Cutting Feature” refers to a structure, surface, or element configured to remove, separate, or excise material by shearing, slicing, chipping, or severing. A cutting feature may include sharp or sharpened edges, points, blades, serrations, teeth, chisels, spikes, points, tips, or other geometries designed to form chips, segments, or slices of material when engaged with bone or other tissue. Cutting features may be formed integrally with a tool, applied as a coating or insert, or manufactured as replaceable elements. Cutting features may act unidirectionally or bidirectionally, may operate under reciprocating, oscillating, or rotary motion, and may be designed for use with powered or manual instruments. Examples include saw blades, bone rasps, osteoplasty tools, or the like with abrading features, teeth, bone-engagement features, chisel edges, rasp teeth configured for slicing rather than grinding, rotary burs with bladed edges, or the like.
