Review on 🔪 Imachinist S64514 Bi Metal Blades Cutting: Superior Performance for Precision Cuts by Chris Hanson

agree with several other reviews that the last few blades I've ordered have performed much worse than the same blades a few years ago. I feed about once a month and try to give each leaf a little break by reducing the feed to about half of normal for at least a few days and then feeding regularly for the rest of the month. I have found that this tends to round off the tips of each tooth and they break less and the cuts are much smoother and they are unsurprising in their thin thickness. BUT the last 6 or 8 blades broke so many teeth in the first few weeks. Almost all broken teeth start right at the weld and spread from there and start jumping around like crazy, leading to more broken teeth. The seller and Amazon are great as they keep replacing them for me. although it's PITA that doesn't get good production from each of them. Incidentally, I've found that without a break-in period, these blades break teeth almost immediately.
