Decent preformance for the price [Posted on 2006-10-29] I use these blades on a 5hp machine and have good luck getting clean edges on multiple spieces of wood. The full kerf cuts clean rip joints as advertised.
The carbide on this blade is massive and should yeild at least 6-8 sharpennings
The cut on this blade is close to the woodworkers but at a lower cost.
Carbide meets nail [Posted on 2006-11-08] This blade performed admireably cutting through 1.25" hard maple gym floor that I am trying to recycle. It really moved a lot of wood and didn't even seem to dull to quickly when we got into the finish and grime on the edges. However when it met a nail it slowed down our feed rate. Upon taking the blade off and having it sharpened we lost one tooth and dulled the rest. Not the blades fault. Operator error and I have since bought another of the same blade to add to the arsenal and have been very pleased with it's performance.
Carbide teeth chip very easily!! [Posted on 2007-02-12] I bought this blade to rip white oak and it cut very well at first. After a couple hundred feet it slowed down so I took it to my sharpener and he couldn't sharpen it because of all the chipped teeth!! None of the teeth were missing, but al of them had chunks of carbide broken out. Not very impressed.....
Smooth Cuts, Solid Blade [Posted on 2007-04-15] This is a substantial blade - perfect for stationary cabinet saws. The kerf is 1/8". The tooth shape is flat - good for rabbits - saves time vs. swapping-in a dado for small jobs.
Adjust blade-height to within a tooth-height above the top of the wood to minimize tear out.
After burnt cherry, and plywood tear-out from other carbide blades, I installed this Freud blade. For the ~1 year I have had the blade it has cut solid and smooth. I retired the blade this week.
I have a home shop and am remodeling, building cabinets, drawers, doors, shed, deck, framing... lots of Cherry and plywood... I also now have Freud blades on my miter and radial-arm saw -- Smooth glue-line cuts.
use for lap makint tennons and other joints [Posted on 2007-08-15] The sole purpous of this blade for me is when cutting joints on the TS. It has flat square teeth so I get a flat bottom on my joints, ie Tenon sides, lap joints....
