sawtoothed
Like bread knives
Sawtoothed describes something with a jagged edge resembling the teeth of a saw—a series of pointed projections all angled the same direction.
A sawtoothed mountain range has sharp, angular peaks.
In electronics, a sawtoothed wave rises gradually then drops sharply, creating that characteristic zigzag pattern.
Also spelled saw-toothed.
