This blade works very well in my Bosch 18V circular saw.

In fact, the saw was performing so poorly, that I was on the
verge of giving up on it, until I discovered this blade.
The saw was binding, slowing down, and sometimes stopping
completely when attempting cuts in 2x8 and 2x6 fir lumber.
It would make maybe four or five cuts on a fully charged battery.
I tried two different, brand new blades (one of them by Bosch)
and got the same dismal performance.

On a whim, I decided to give this Freud D0624X Diablo a try,
hoping that the non-stick coating would improve things.
In a word, Wow!
The difference is like night and day.
I can now make at least two dozen cuts before recharging the battery
(in 2x8 lumber). The saw no longer feels sluggish and underpowered.

I'm sure there are other good brands of saw blade out there
-- after all I've only tried three of them - but this particular Freud
blade exceeded my expectations considerably.

Hope this helps other cordless circular saw owners.

Like the other guy, I almost gave up on my Dewalt 18 volt (lithium ion) circular saw.
I would have never figured a $10 blade would make that big of a difference. The other blades would bog down the motor. Not this one...it cuts really smooth and quick without bogging.
My corded 77 will continue to stay on the shelf in my shop now thanks to the earlier reviewers.

Regardless of the size, these Diablo saw blades are tough and long lasting, I have purchased sizes from 4.5 to 7.25 and am very happy.

A definite step up from the factory blade on most saws. This is my favorite blade to use for general use. Crosscuts and rips wonderfully for your framing needs. I have even used new blades for some of my fine woodworking projects. Makes you saw run easier and faster.

cuts 2xs,3/4" osb, 3/4" oak like butter. I use the freud blades in my 6 1/2 " dewalt 18 volt saw and there is no comparison to other blades. Watch for amazon sales and get them cheaper than the fat blades

I got this blade for my 18v Makita cordless saw after reading the other reviews. This blade gave a much better cut than a 40 tooth blade I bought from another manufacturer. I used this blade to make numerous types of cuts ( crosscut and rip) in Brazilian Cherry hardwood flooring without a problem. And the pre-finished flooring did not chip, etc. This blade gives a very fine cut. Would not hesitate to buy this blade again. And it is reasonably priced to boot. If you have a cordless saw, do yourself a favor and get this blade. You will not be disappointed in the price/performance.

Like all Freud blades these are top quality at a great price, I bought the 4 for the price of 3 deal. I get longer battery life with these blades over the others and it may because of the coating on the blade.

i have been using diablo blades on all my saws since before they were red. i was glad to finally see the 6 1/2 inch blade for cordless saws, because my cordless (milwaukee ) was just hopeless. as soon as i saw the 6 1/2 inch blade i put it on that saw and things got a lot better.if you havent tried a diablo, try the 6 1/2 on your cordless. you will like it enough that you will tell somebody about it. i use them on all my saws because you just cant get a better blade.

I purchased this as a cheaper alternative to buying the original Milwaukee sawblades for the V28 cordless saw. I have found these blades to be superior in longevity and improving battery life with it's very thin kerf. Solid.

Second to none in my opinion & Amazon always has the best price. I even use it to cut Hardiplank.
