Cuts like hot knife through butter
By Mark Goodall
I purchased this blade for use on my compound miter saw. It cuts very well leaving a very smooth finish in all the woods I've tried: oak, maple, cherry, walnut. I espeCially like the teflon coating, all my other saw blades have developped rust over the years no matter how hard I try to keep them clean. This blade should keep cutting well and looking clean for a very long time.

By Jason Ledyard
Among the finest blades I've seen yet. I'm remodeling an old house, and need to cut new base boards (oak). It isn't kidding when it says "Glass Smooth". This blade in my DeWalt 706 is an ideal setup.
Beware, even a blade of this quality is not a replacement for proper support of the wood. If you are doing fine work with good wood, invest the time to create a sacrifical backstop and throat plate for your mitre saw. The stock plates on my DeWalt are great for general work, but if you want 5-star results, put in the effort to set up your saw correctly.

By Dan McClure
I've been using the factory blade on my Delta 12 inch chop saw, what a mistake. The Freud LU85R012 cuts perfectly. I should have bought the Freud when I bought the saw. Don't wait, buy it.
