💎 ALSKAR DIAMOND USA ADLSS 14-inch Dry/Wet Cutting General Purpose Segmented High-Speed Diamond Saw Blades for Concrete, Stone, Brick, and Masonry (14-inch) Review

This blade is fine. I admit it's harder for me than most. Being a retired bricklayer, I used this blade to cut bricks and blocks of masonry for a large decking project. It didn't quite last through the entire project. Although it would be great for a weekend warrior.

Cut a total of 24 feet in concrete and still cut great in the end. I kept spraying water on the blade, stopping every 6 inches to clear the mud. It went surprisingly fast, cutting at around 9-12 inches per minute. My skill saw wanted to drift to the right, it took some muscle to keep it on course. But I don't think it has anything to do with the blade. Good blade for a good price.

I bought this blade for a mailbox project and am very happy with it. I made 12 cuts through 2 1/2" blocks of stone and the blade didn't slow down or have any trouble going through them (slowly and smoothly). I used it as a dry blade on my cheap Menards angle saw at the tool store and it was amazing. If you are doing a home project this is perfect, not sure how it will perform for commercial use. Buy prime and get a 30 day return window.

Install a new fence, a second planter and lay pavers to block the wall. As a result I had to cut 49 pavers and it turned out great. The 6 inch blade only cut halfway so I had to turn around and cut the back side, 98 cuts total. It cut a little slower toward the last few, but the last cut was at least 90% lighter than the first. I almost missed the blade was pointing and if inserted backwards it would cut on the back of the notch but not very well and for very long. I highly recommend.

I needed to cut some pavers/bricks for a small project. This blade did a great job. Clean cut, no struggle. I just cut out a few blocks that I needed to finish the splashback that I installed around the drain pump outlet (I usually run hose but wanted to build a small wall in case I wasn't home and turned it on mulch so it doesn't wash off). After that the blade looked fine. would recommend. I will update when using in future projects. As a side note, there's a lot of dust when dry cutting…

This thing came with an odd spec describing how to install different sized mortises. What they did was push a brass bushing into the mandrel hole. This fit my little angle grinder setup, but as I used the tool the blade started to slip, and eventually the blade stopped spinning when it met resistance in the concrete block. I squeezed out the loose bushing and readjusted my tool for a larger shaft. I completed the work without any further problems. So this works, but may fail if you depend on a…

I needed an inexpensive concrete block cutter for a retaining wall I was building. The blade fit my Dewalt DWS780 miter saw (I used the adapter ring on the original Dewalt blade for this blade) and it worked great. This blade cut 4 x 6 x 12 inch blocks like butter and some of the cuts I made had to be very precise. I could even shave off thin slabs if I had to and chipping was minimal or non-existent. At least a dozen blocks with no slowdown. I would buy this again and recommend it to anyone…

So, we got the new blades and today was the first day of "trying out" these blades. If you're cutting a rock, you already know that what matters isn't how well they start cutting, but how long they keep cutting, smoothly and without calling out the 300-pound gorilla of your inner caveman. Well, at the end of the first day it was about 70-80. 14 inch slots were cut through the 1 1/2 inch concrete block top caps for the landscape wall blocks. Result? They also cut very well. There should be some…
