Review on Porter Cable 883099 Blade 2 by Dave Tapia

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Serves its purpose but seems overpriced.

I bought this saw blade with a flat and plate joint PC 557 enjoy it over dowels. This blade is used for front framed (FF) cookies, of which I made about 10 cuts. So far, and although the blade was new, it wasn't particularly sharp and seemed to have some issues cutting pine. Add to that the fact that this blade is 25% of the cost of the machine and I'm not keen on it but I made this for a project. Using a 4 inch saw blade is no problem. So next time I need to sharpen a table saw blade I'll try to send this guy over to sharpen.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Good but not great
