- Very smooth, very clean cuts
- I bought this blade for my new Jet Deluxe saw to replace an older combination blade I had on hand. I've truly used it as an all-around blade - I haven't, in fact, put a dedicated crosscut or rip blade on the saw yet, as I've been happy with the cuts I've been getting. Crosscuts are as good as I've seen with a crosscut blade in the past. I can feel a bit of drag ripping, compared to using a dedicated rip blade, but the cut is still excellent. This is excellent performance in a modestly-priced blade, plus it's coated. I think it's a good buy.

- Very clean cuts
- This blade makes very clean cuts. I have cross cut and ripped Maple, Walnut, Oak, Pine, Poplar and plywood all with nice crisp cuts. The occasional cleanup of the blade and it's back like new.

- Good blade taking into consideration it is a combination
- I like this blade, it gives you a fairly good cut, but not as good as what I get with the 80 teeth crosscut blade or their 24 teeth rip blade. Considering that it is a combination blade and the convenience of not having to switch blades I would highly recommend it. On the other hand for real fine work I would always go to a dedicated blade.

- everything has limitations
- This post is not to insult anyone's woodworking skills just sharing my experience with this blade.
I bought this blade thinking I could mount it on my saw and forget about, mistake. This Blade works great as a combination saw blade on soft (pine) ¾ stock; but don't be fooled into thinking that you can mount it in your saw and forget about. The blade's full width kerf and number of teeth will cause your saw to bog down the first time you try to rip a piece of 4x4 hardwood stock. Especially if you are using it in an underpowered table top saw.I think the blade's thickness is the killer. Just something this weekend sawdust manufacture ran into. - 2008-02-28, 1 of 2 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Great blade Great Price
- Fast rip cuts with jointer-like results. Owned mine now for 4 months. Put on PM2000 and have used the blade for ripping 3000 feet of hemlock and have made 12 cherry cabinets with the same blade.
