5.0 out of 5 stars Clean, smooth cuts, August 4, 2006

By	Jim Kennicott - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This blade complements a similar 10" Freud blade I have used for three years in my table saw. Excellent performance, fine kerf, almost polished finish to the cut surfaces. The quality of the blade coupled with the excellent price, made this purchase an easy decision.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely one of the best on the market period!, February 13, 2008

By	"Martial" Mykola from the North East (Philadelphia, PA USA) - See all my reviews

Freud makes some of the best quality products in tools. They are solid, reliable, and just plain well made, and this saw blade is no exception. My old miter saw blade was finally starting to show its age and well just signs of use! So I decided to see what was available as a replacement and since I alread own Freud router and forstner bits well you know how it goes. I picked up this saw blade and I can say in my 15 years of woodworking (handyman type level) including my dad's tools I haven't seen cleaner cuts from a blade. I mean some cuts don't even require sanding it's so nice and clean. Anyway, take a go for yourself. You will NOT be disappointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Actually better than Forrest, March 29, 2008

By	Steven T. Holloway (Las Vegas, Nevada United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Purchased this blade because I was having some trouble cutting think maple on my Porter Cable 12 inch saw with Forrest Chopmaster. I think the positive hook angle and slightly thinner kerf really helped as this blade cuts much without slowing or burning, which the Forrest was doing. I think that was really more of a function of my saw being underpowered, than the Forrest blade. So if you are looking for a good blade for a saw thats a little underpowered, this is the ticket.
