Review on πŸ”§ Morse 406 MKM Multi-Size 050326000406 by Jeremy May

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It's hard to find a good blade for such a small saw, but I think...

This is a hard blade. I use it with my Skil table saw (9.5 inch). It does the job well. It's stronger than any other blade you could get at Home Depot, Lowe's, or Ace (tried all three places and the blades snapped instantly). It's hard to find a good blade for such a small saw, but I think the MK Morse fills that need well. My first one broke, but that was because I was trying to go too fast, not making relief cuts, and the tension was too tight. I bought another one and it's just a no-brainer. I use this saw for much heavier work than it's rated for and this blade just makes the job that much faster. I haven't had any tracking issues, but it's probably a bit tight to allow for cuts. It's not like you can do sawing projects with a 9.5 inch saw, but if you do you'll probably need a wider blade like 1/2 inch or something. I mean, bottom line, a 9.5 inch band saw isn't as good as a $3,000 Delta no matter what blade you get. However, I was really impressed with this budget blade. It comes razor sharp out of the box, it'll last longer than any blade you can get from the store, and the narrow profile means you can make some pretty sharp turns without stressing the steel or saw. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because my first one broke, but I'm pretty sure it was operator error and not something wrong with the blade itself. For $10 this blade is very impressive.
