After using my Ryobi blade for quite sometime on my compound miter saw... I was amazed. The crosscut in Maple actually had a shine to it, it was so smooth.

I purchased this blade for a DW712. It works very well. It is not quite upto the quality of the WWII. It makes good cuts; however, the difference between this and a 40$ Freud is not worth the difference in price. I don't say this because I am involved in The Freud Vs. Forrest Debate. In fact I would normally favor Forrest. I just don't feel that this blade's performance warrants the price.

I purchased this to use on my 1954 radial arm saw and it cuts so clean I was literally speechless. I am pretty new to woodworking and was advised not to skimp on blades. These are very pricy and the competition seemes to be creeping up on them but the cut on this blade is better than and Freud blade I have used (I have 2)Forrest CM08Q606100 Chopmaster 8-1/4-Inch 60 Tooth ATB Miter Saw Blade with 5/8-Inch Arbor

The best upgrade for your chopsaw. Clean, precise cuts, no blade deflection, long lasting. Have tried many different varieties of blades trying to save a bit of money, but always go back to the Chopmaster. They resharpen often and relatively inexpensively. First rate goods!!!
