Established in 1966 as Omega SAWS, our company has long been a trusted name in precision engineering and industrial innovation. In 2023, with a renewed vision and leadership under mechanical engineering enthusiast Diwakar Reddy, Omega SAS evolved into Blades, a modern engineering powerhouse committed to driving industry transformation through advanced technology, streamlined solutions, and future-ready manufacturing.
Omega Saws Pty Ltd was established in 1966, specializing in the manufacturing of precision power saw blades. The company quickly earned a reputation for quality and durability, becoming a trusted supplier in Australia’s industrial tooling sector. However, with the decline of the hand saw market and the shift toward overseas manufacturing, operations were suspended and the original plant was sold.
In response to emerging demand in agriculture, the founding family rebranded the company as Blades Australia Pty Ltd, shifting its focus to manufacturing high-performance agricultural and industrial cutting solutions. This strategic pivot positioned the company to serve a growing niche with customized, reliable products made for tough Australian conditions.
Decades later, in 2023, a new chapter began. Diwakar Reddy, a mechanical engineer with deep technical acumen and entrepreneurial drive, took over the reins of Blades. But he didn’t just inherit a legacy; he brought a clear vision for the future. With a passion for modern manufacturing, Diwakar began overhauling operations, investing in research and development, and integrating smart technologies to future-proof the business. Under his leadership, Blades started its transformation into a cutting-edge engineering powerhouse for the 21st century.
Today, Blades is reshaping the future of industrial and agricultural blade manufacturing and through intelligent automation, innovation-first thinking, and a global vision rooted in Australian excellence.
Diwakar Reddy, the Director of Blades, moved to Australia in 2003 to pursue his Master’s in Manufacturing Engineering. With a strong belief in the potential of Australian manufacturing, he developed a deep passion for revitalizing the local industry. Years later, that vision led him to take over Blades, one of Australia’s legacy names in industrial blade solutions. Under his leadership, the company is not only preserving its heritage but also evolving rapidly.
Diwakar is actively investing his time, capital, and technical expertise into expanding Blades’ product portfolio, driving innovation, and re-establishing Australia as a hub for high-quality manufacturing.

Since 2008, Blades Australia has been an efficient and reliable resource of cutting our required 32mm steel. I have greatly appreciated their constant attention to details when they do our case hardening to a thickness of 1 mm. I have rarely had a reason to complain as their quality and service is A1.
