Review on WEN BL1040: Premium 10-Inch Carbide-Tipped Saw Blade for Miter Saws & Table Saws - A Must-Have for Professional Woodworking by Terry Wright

saw blade arrived on time and well packaged. The blade turned out to be new and on closer inspection I didn't see anything of value so I mounted it on my table saw and made a cross cut on a fresh 2x6, the smoothness of the cut was impressive but the blade was missing a tooth. ! I've had several blades of varying costs and all have lost at least one tooth during use, but this particular blade lost 4 teeth in about 10 standard cuts in wood alone. Now it sits in my junkyard, awaiting another use in the future, maybe in a plane or even a knife. I am now retired and have worked with wood for over 50 years and I can spot bad soldering immediately. In my opinion the teeth were not properly brazed to the blade body. I cannot recommend this particular blade for quality or durability, but as an inexpensive spare in an emergency.
