I am re-siding my entire house by myself with James Hardie Siding and these Diablo blades are the best. I purchased this blade for my 10 inch miter saw and it makes everything so much easier and quicker. I was hesitant to spend so much and was simply buying the cheaper 7 1/4" blades for my circular saw...what a waste of time!

This blade has been through hundereds of cuts in the past few weeks and I would easily pay double what I spent on it!

Save yourself the headache and by Diablo! Thanks Freud for making these blades!

We put up the cement board siding on our house and this blade worked great. We were able to use one blade for the entire house and it didn't wear out. The diamond coating cut the boards very cleanly and didn't tear up the edges. Even though the price seems a little high at first you only need one so that it evens out in the end.

I am very pleased with the cuts this blade makes in cement siding. I've used it in my miter saw to make smooth cuts every time. I have learned that it's best to first cut about half way through then make a second pass that goes all the way through. The results are clean with only a rare chip out of the upper surface. This is definitely better that the power shears I tried which tended to end every cut with a break.

Got this to cut 8 1/4" Hardie Plank siding. I'm about a month into the job and the blade still cuts as well as it did when new. My only wish is that I'd have bought the 12" saw instead of the 10" since this blade can't cut through the planks in one pass.

This is a very good product for Hardie Board siding. I've sided most of my house and it shows very little wear. I have a lot of windows so there was a lot of cutting going on.
