Review on Lenox Tools 8010838PW185 Wolf Band 020 Inch by Paul Barnes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It just doesn't cut it for me.

I think it might work for some people but here's my experience: I've had to finish the cut on some 6-4 titans who were 90% complete I already took off my used but not broken Dewalt blade and put one on, it started cutting as usual but after 30 seconds it stopped cutting completely, I thought I was doing something wrong, but after the moment i felt my teeth, i knew it was toast. I had the last fresh Dewalt blade so I put it on and it finished the cut with ease. I know titanium is a hard material, but it's softer than steel. I doubt I'll be buying more of these unless they work much better with steel for some reason. TO UPDATE! I've tried them on steel and they require slow speed if you want them to last. I blew 2 blades before trying super slow speed but when I tried slow speed they actually cut fast so high speed seems to ruin their character. I mean, my handsaw isn't crazy speed or anything, but obviously it's fast enough to overheat your teeth. At the moment I see them as an option for the future because they are cheaper than Dewalt discs, but if someone borrows my saw they will most likely destroy the disc and possibly overheat the tire if they continue.

Pros
  • Tuff tooth design reinforces the tooth for longer blade life
Cons
  • String is shorter than other picks
