Review on πŸ”ͺ Freud D1080X Diablo 10" 80-Tooth ATB Saw Blade with 5/8" Arbor & PermaShield Coating - Ultimate Precision and Durability! by Eddie Curd

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not as clean a cut as Makita, but more reliable

Compare this head-to-head with Makita's 10-inch A-94770 80-tooth fine-cutting blade. I bought and returned 2 Makitas and didn't want them. Perfect, clean 5-star cuts, regardless of whether they are cut from above or below the workpiece, and run quietly. However, both Makita blades were slightly deformed and wobbled, affecting cutting accuracy. Slim kerf, but the swing beats it. I hate returning Makita. I bought this Diablo 10 inch with 80 teeth. Cuts clean (not as clean as this Makita), not as quiet and smooth, but the Diablo is smooth, wobbly, and accurate. The thicker kerf is probably the cause.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Some issues
