This review is from: Makita a-90956 16-5/16" 32 Tooth Carbide Blade (Misc.)
This monster of a saw blade looked great coming out of the box, but the the words "made in China" appeared. A fine Japanese product now produced its blade in China rather then Japan? I used it to cut SIP's stress skin panels and the old panels on my roof, which needed to be replaced. It cut thru the 4.5 inch panels and partially into 3/4 inch pine and performed well. Cleaning my tools after cutting out three panels I noticed that 13 of the 32 carbide teeth were either chipped or totally missing. I used a milwaukee carbide for the initial cut, American made, and no damage to the blade, but the Chinese made one, totalled. The blade has been sent back for a refund. In the future I will purchase a Frued Diablo blade, made in Italy. I hear they hold up well. The Chinese metal in the blade must be the same garbage they made my trucks rotors out of, 20.000 miles and they disintigrated.
