The ANTILOPE® Blue Saw Bladesare true legends: For over 100 years, they’ve been a trusted essential in the workshops of professional goldsmiths and jewellers worldwide. As the very first generation of our jeweller’s saw blades, they represent everything that defines NIQUA® – craftsmanship, quality, and precision.
With their blue hardening, positive cuting angle, and rounded back, they are not only ideal for cutting gold and silver alloys, but also excel when working with harder metals such as stainless steel. The result: clean, controlled cuts, excellent blade guidance, and minimal material loss.
These saw blades are blue-hardened and traditionally bound by the dozen with silver-colored wire – a true piece of toolmaking heritage for today’s modern bench.
🔹 Extremely sharp and break-resistant
🔹 Suitable for precious metals and hard alloys
🔹 Excellent guidance thanks to rounded back
🔹 Made in Germany – since 1897
