Review on Durable DEWALT Diamond Blade for Precise Wet Tile Cutting - 10-Inch x .060-Inch (DW4764) by Shawn Bass

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good, reliable and relatively durable knife

When I switched from XP to XP4 blades I found longer lasting, smoother cuts and no blade chipping on porcelain stoneware. From time to time I reshape the blade to preserve the quality of the diamond (using Raimondi Diamond Blade Resin). It's easy to recommend a regular production cut when that's less critical. I seem to be refining this a little just because for small tile cuts that require precision (no tiles in the field) the blade gives a bit and changes the bevel spacing. For example, in a niche where parts are small and beveled and require a precise cut, I prefer a less flexible blade. But you can fix it by taking your time with snips or other measures to keep the blade from moving. Maybe I need more skills. A great knife for the price.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Something different
