Review on πŸ”ͺ Makita A-93681 10-Inch 80T Micro Polished Silver Mitersaw Blade: Precision Cutting Power by John Clark

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great blade, great price

This blade is a great fit for a carpenter's miter saw. It produces ready-to-glue blanks using only a minimum of material. It will handle heavier materials, albeit with some effort. I've used it at 2x for framing and even the occasional PT and it works well, albeit quite slowly as you'd expect from an 80t blade. Works well on plywood. But where it really shines are cross cuts in fairly thin material like 1x boards and battens. The cuts are just great and tearing is minimal even with fairly thin pine splicing. It is produced in Thailand. I've had mixed results with Makita knives over the years and had low expectations for such a cheap imported knife. But this one has proven to be a real winner.
