    • Sharp, clean cuts on A surface
It came quite sharp, and cuts very well on the A surface ('up' side on table saw), the bottom has some chip out, which may be helped with a better zero clearance plate. But, this is listed as one side only, and it meets that expectation very well. I'm pleased with the results (but only have about 100+ ft of cutting with it) - enough so that I would purchase this again, it's quite a bit better cheaper blades I've purchased. UPDATE: I've used this for a few hundred feet of cutting now (~500' in melamine/particle board). It cuts now like it did when new. Very pleased with the cut quality and durability. When dull, I will replace it with this blade. ... show more

    • Great Blade for Woodworking

These blades are the best. I use them in my table saw, chop saw & circular saw. They cut through both hardwood and softwood without issue. Once they become dull you can resharpen and they’re like brand new. I use a local company that sharpens them.

    • Excellent blade for plywood
I used this blade in my table saw to build my kitchen cabinets. It is a fantastic blade for plywood. Perfect cuts, no tear out. Used it for to break down and dimention 18 sheets of 3/4" Cherry ply and 10 sheets of 1/4" cherry ply. Still a lot of life left in the blade. Well worth the cost.

    • Quality product at economical price
This saw blade cuts common hardwoods leaving a smooth enough edge to minimize sanding. It is a qaulity product that I will definitely purchase again when it becomes dull.

    • My everyday blade for wood and polycarbonate on my 10" radial arm saw...
This is my everyday blade for wood and polycarbonate on my 10" radial arm saw. The 2° hook angle is not too aggressive in pulling itself into the wood (but watch for that - a negative hook angle might be better but those are hard to find) and I get a lot of mileage from the carbide teeth. With 80 teeth I get clean cuts if I go slowly. It has a left-right tooth cutting pattern and I wish there was a 3rd tooth that cut a flat bottom for making successive, smooth 'dado' cuts, but it's good enough. ... show more

    • Cuts like hot steel through butter
So far this blade is fantastic. We will see how long it holds up. Will update if I run into any issues.

I bought this blade a few days ago. I'm making furniture grade projects out of oak and birch plywood. Thickness is 1/8 inch to 3/4 inch plywood. I need a blade that will not leave tear outs or splinters. The freud LU79R010 does the best cutting job of any blade I've ever had. I have Milwaukee, Irwin, Black and Decker, Disston and other freud saw blades. This freud LU79R cuts smoother by far than any other I've tried. I tried the blade on some 2x4 and 2x6 pine. It cross cut very smooth and same on rip but was slower. The reason for the smooth cut and edge is obvious once you handle the blade and discover how sharp the cutting points are on each piece of carbide. SHARP! The sharp points angle out from the surface of the blade body. The combination of thin blade and kerf with the ultra sharp carbide teeth make it easy to push wood stock through the blade while cutting. The blade stays aligned better than my other blades. It leaves no burn marks. I can't account for that. If you're in need of the smoothest cutting blade buy this one. ... show more

    • Very nice plywood blade
I have never been disappointed with Freud saw blades. Be aware that this blade is spefically for cutting plywood, so if you are looking for a flat kerf on your cuts, this not the blade for that. But it will leave an excellent surface on the cut-surface.
