About Freud's Avanti Blades
Freud’s Thin Kerf (TK) Series of blades provide precise, quality cuts for most every application. The advanced thin kerf design removes less material -- thereby reducing the strain on your equipment and increasing the life of your saw. The slim design requires less cutting power from both you and the saw, making it ideal for underpowered saws. A Silver I.C.E. coating on all Freud TK blades helps reduce friction, heat build-up and gumming, thus extending the life of the blade by as much as 50 percent.

About this Avanti Blade
The Freud 10-inch 50-tooth thin kerf combination saw blade features a unique-Tooth design suitable for multiple cutting and ripping tasks. Each set of 5 teeth is separated by a large gullet, which provides the chip removal space required while ripping -- and the close grouping of teeth within the set provides the smaller bite size required when crosscutting. For easy use and added precision, the blades also feature an anti-kickback design, and tri-metal brazing for impact resistance. The blade has expansion slots that are strategically placed to allow for blade-body expansion from centrifugal force, and thermal expansion during actual use. The slots are used to prevent air turbulence and eliminate vibration. This blade boasts a Silver I.C.E. coating resist corrosion and buildup, and officer twice as much heat resistance and life than conventional uncoated blades.

Applications
This thin kerf saw blade requires less cutting power from the user and the saw, allowing more control over the cut for safer operation. Use it on almost any material with almost any table saw.

• 1/4-inch minimum depth of cut

This review is from: Freud TK906 Avanti 10-Inch 50 Tooth ATB Thin Kerf Combination Saw Blade (Tools & Home Improvement)

This is not just a good blade for the price, it is a good blade period! I bought one of these last year to put on my Delta contractor saw. I love the thin kerf design. It makes the blade run with less friction and drag, and my saw has more power left to cut heavy stock. I have used this blade to taper 3" square, solid oak table legs with no problems. It leaves an extremely smooth surface on the cut. I am convinced that you can do no better than Freud's 10" blades.

This review is from: Freud TK906 Avanti 10-Inch 50 Tooth ATB Thin Kerf Combination Saw Blade (Tools & Home Improvement)

I've used this blade on an underpowered older table saw for a year now, mostly on oak and ash. It is better than any other blade I've tried (and has lasted longer). No noticeable vibration, less stock removal, and good smooth cuts on all types of stock and thicknesses. It even cuts 8/4 unfinished oak stock with little problem. From the above, you can gather that I also use it as an all-purpose blade. Highly recommended for the price.

Outstanding blade. Vary little vibration , with no or little sanding required. The slower you feed, the better the cut.
