Review on POWERTEC 62-Inch 8-Inch Blade - Model 13132X by Jesse Jewett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Smooth cuts, easy-to-follow lines and curves

Attaches to a 9" Harbor Freight band saw. It has an extremely smooth cut and follows the line easily. Hardwood due to the high number of teeth, but cuts still good if you take your time.The cross cuts (perpendicular to the grain) are very good.I mainly use my bandsaw to roughly cut plywood or MDF router templates (to refine by filing and sanding) or 4/4- Roughly cutting hardwoods like walnut and maple to use on the router with these templates, too stiff, but I was happy enough with the cut quality to order a replacement of the same blade anyway (and a second one as a backup), although I wish they had made a 1/8 blade with fewer teeth.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Upgrade available
