I'm trying to puzzle out what to call the kerf that a saw makes when it cuts through a meterial. 'Kerf' refers in this sense to the cut made by the blade as it goes through the wood, etc.

The ideas I've thought of are:

tranĉgrando, segilspuro, tranĉspuro

I've already ruled out using 'sulko' as that refers to a hole with a definite bottom. A kerf goes clear through the material.

I also considered 'tranĉvojo', but that (to me) sounds like the line one follows to cut, not the cut itself.

Hmm a cut made by a saw, how about segiltranĉo?

As long as that wouldn't be confused with segiltranĉaĵo we're OK.

I thought it was the aĵo sense that you were aiming for though?

A 'tranĉo' could refer to either the act of cutting or the result of the act, according to the context. The same would be true of 'segiltranĉo' I think. If you wanted to be explicit that you're talking about the cut itself, rather than the act of cutting, then of course you could use -aĵ for that.

What about 'segfendo'? That would be the gap caused by sawing.
