The Freud Difference
Freud manufactures some of the most innovative, technologically advanced saw blades in the world. To ensure that the highest quality products meet the toughest design standards, Freud owns and operates six manufacturing facilities in Western Europe. Freud is one of the few manufacturers of woodworking tools in the world that produces its own MicroGrain carbide with titanium, called TiCo -- a combination of titanium and cobalt. Freud develops different types of carbide for each application to maximize the cutting life and performance of the tool; and Freud also operates one of the most modern product development research centers in Europe. By overseeing the entire manufacturing process from start to finish, Freud guarantees some of the highest quality, most advanced products in the industry.

About Freud Industrial Blades
Freud’s industrial series blades were designed for the serious woodworker. Available in a variety of styles for different applications, LU blades feature thick carbide tips, precision-tensioned bodies found in every Freud quality blade. Some LU blades include a red Teflon coating that helps reduce friction, heat build-up, and gumming -- which prolongs the life of the blade.

About this 10-Inch 80-Tooth ATB Ultimate Cut-Off Saw Blade
This exceptional 10-inch, 80-tooth blade is truly worth the extra expense. The LU85R010 from Freud displays impressive engineering and features that makes it today's popular choice for woodworkers. The MicroGrain carbide/titanium tips stay sharp longer; the laser-cut body helps keep the hard steel blade flat and true; Tri-Metal Brazing prevents cracks and failed joints; and the anti-kickback design ensures safer operation. This blade cuts great, runs quietly and always performs chatter-free. It's Teflon-coated to reduce friction and heat buildup -- and it’s protected against rust, corrosion, and resin buildup, too. You might even want to use this blade to coax a better performance out of older or underpowered saws.

Applications
This 10-inch, 80-tooth blade is designed to make sharp, thin kerf cuts on hard and soft woods.

Warranty
Freud blades are covered by a limited lifetime guarantee.

5.0 out of 5 stars as smooth as glass, May 24, 2000

By	"oakville905" (san pedro) - See all my reviews

I thought it was a crock when I heard this blade cut wood as smooth as glass...but! I was wrong dead wrong...it is like someone buffed the piece of wood I just cut, it was so smooth it was shinning. A definite must in your shop.

5.0 out of 5 stars No need to sand this cut!, June 15, 2000

By	Roy E. Masters Jr. "Photo Dude" (Benton Harbor, MI USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Unbelievable smooth cuts. If you see any tooth marks on the cut, your saw must be out of adjustment! I keep the trailing edge of the blade about 0.002" tapered away from the cut piece and get perfect cuts everytime on my Jet 3Hp saw.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Superb Saw Blade - Worth Every Cent, May 12, 2002

By	D. Jaster "Tool Guy" (st. peters, missouri United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This blade lives up to it's billing. It does cut as smooth as glass. If I had not seen it with my own eyes I wouldn't have believed it. Pair this blade with the Freud blade stabilizer and you have a cutting combo for your table saw that is hard to beat. (I would recommend cleaning the blade every now and then. Pitch build up does reduce the smoothness of the cut.) Chalk up another one for Freud!
