Portfolio overview

Blount, Inc. has been granted 42 US utility patents between 2015 and 2021, placing Blount, Inc. at rank #7,672 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 28 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in B27B (SAWS FOR WOOD OR SIMILAR MATERIAL; COMPONENTS OR ACCESSORIES THEREFOR). As a US Corporation, Blount, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Blount sits between Bausch Health Ireland Limited (42 patents, rank #7,668) and Choon's Design Llc (42 patents, rank #7,676) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 36.7/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 2 grants, compared with 40 in the 2015–2019 window, a -95% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Blount, Inc.'s 8.4 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 28 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Blount, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
