A brush blade is a specialized cutting attachment fitted to wildland hand tools, featuring heavy, sharpened teeth designed to rip through thick vegetation. Crews use it to aggressively chop, pull, and clear stubborn brush, vines, and root systems when constructing a handline. The aggressive teeth grab onto fibrous material that standard scraping tools would just slide over.
