German term or phrase: Wellenmesser
Die breite Maulfläche, Zähne zum Aufschweißen und die wechsel- und wendbaren Wellenmesser des Pulverisierer-Kits eignen sich bestens zum Pulverisieren sowie zum Trennen von Eisen aus Beton und Recycling.

According to the English version of this website (http://www.lst-anbaugeraete.de/_#kombizange_ds), they are called "wave blades", but I'm not convinced.

Any better suggestions?

shaft blades


Explanation:
According to the description of the P series pulverizer.

Thanks to their compact design, the pulverizers in the P series are exceptionally lightweight and easy to handle – with consistently high power. The piston rod and cylinder are integrated in the housing and hence protected. The replaceable shaft blades for cutting iron are protected against wear caused by concrete.
