I bought this saw blade based on an Amazon customer who posted a review in March 2019. Like him, I was completely disappointed with my previous sawing attempts. I couldn't get a straight cut! I have an old Ridgid band saw but it hasn't been used much. It wasn't abuse. I have a couple of good quality blades but apparently I didn't have the right one. I have a band saw fence sold by Hartville Tools to help with this process. No matter what I did, all cuts were ugly and everywhere. In a fit of frustration I even used a tiny 1/8" wide blade. What could it hurt? Nothing else helped. This didn't work either. Wow! I never thought a blade could make such a difference I sometimes doubt myself and think I must have adjusted something on the saw that made a difference. If so, I have no idea what it was. Also, you're sawing right now, this disc cuts in my opinion after quick. It's great. To be fair the wood in the photo is cedar which is easy to cut because it's soft. Haven't tried oak etc. Trials of sawing have also been made on cedar with no success.
