Review on πŸ”ͺ Improved Olson FB27211DB Blade with 0.32-Inch Thickness and 1.11-Inch Length by Robert Wood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sharp, clean and straight saw blade

Good saw blade. Fits perfectly on my Rikon 10-324 at 111". Just like the old saw blade. Without much setup I was ready to go. I sawed a 1x5 pine board first and as you can see from the photos I ended up with two thin boards 1/4" and a 2mm thin veneer board made from a 3/4 thick (you know what they call 1" par) board. Also the surface finish is very good. I think I will have many problems, this blade is sharp and works clean and straight. Update: I've run through walnut, zebrano, oak and jatoba with this blade and the results are very good. As a new blade, this one cuts properly and cleanly, I got 4 3/16" pieces from a real 6-7" wide 1" zebrano board (see photo). Zebrano usually has a terrible split, but this blade cuts clean.

Pros
  • Power and hand tools
