Hi Hans I bought a reciprocating saw B&D in a Black&Decker store from Las
Vegas a lot of years ago thinking to use to cut green bamboos
without sucess. After I pass to use it only to cut dried bamboos. You
can see a handsaw at my website in the link bellow:

You can see the tooth detail at this page too.
I have a circular saw with this same kind of tooth (180 tooth). With
this it is possible to preserve a perfect cut included the green
bamboo poles
PS.: This circular saw you can find at Lowes or Home Depot stores in
USA.

I have a 18v Hitachi reciprocating saw which is my favourite tool
for
cutting bamboo, both culms and rhizome divisions. I have been using
an
excellent blade on green culms. It is imported from Germany by
Sutton Tools
Australia. They sell it under their own brand name with product code
4045.
It has teeth very similar to the better quality pruning saws. It
makes a
very nice smooth cut compared to other reciprocating saw blades I
have in my
collection. The only problem is they are hugely expensive and I
don't
understand why, I am looking for a cheaper alternative. I am sure
many of
you are also using reciprocating saws, also known as Sawzall or
Sabre saws.
Does anyone have a recommendations for blades for smooth cutting of
green
bamboo culms? I haven't tried greenwood pruning blades yet, they are
much
cheaper but with only 5 teeth per inch, they seem way too course to
produce
a nice cut.
Regards from a wet downunder
