🔪 Enhanced Freud 12" x 72T Thin Kerf Sliding Compound Miter Saw Blade (LU91R012) - Elevating Performance and Precision Review

Yes, I still have the old DeWalt hand saw. Bought it in Montgomery Wards many moons ago, I think. Give them some props for a quality product I've just disassembled, cleaned and oiled. Like new. I gave him this new blade that was finally made for these machines. It cuts like a good new blade and doesn't try to snag on wood and twist everything out of alignment. The machine came with a carbide-free steel blade that tried to kill me every day. Bought a standard carbide blade well before the…

The attached video is solid black walnut, 8/4" or 2" thick. The last blade came from my workshop, it's time to replace this blade. I was just blown away at how easy it is to cut 2″ thick walnuts, hickory, maple and purple heart, all of which are extremely dense and hard. My jaw literally dropped when I made the first cut with this blade. I could probably slide a finger through wood with ZERO BLADE LIFT! Compared to my other blades, which frankly made me nervous every time, this blade is not…

I am a carpenter and use a 12" slip joint miter saw every day. I've been using Freud's Diablo line for years because of everything I've used they are so much better than any readily available blade from either of the two major major chains. I've always had "fairly good" results with Freud Fine or Ultra Fine finish blades, but I wanted to try a dedicated glide blade. Obviously the toe angle -5* matters. This year I had to start with a brand new setup (saw, wheel stand and saw blade) and decided…

New Makita 12" miter saw (110V, model LS1219L, no battery) cuts better. The factory blade is good for pine, but I cut 5" solid hickory. 3/4" floor, 1" thick x 12" wide stair treads and 3/4" x 7.5" stair treads. nor the Diablo blade, I've read about the benefits of a negative angle blade. A world of differences. This blade is worth every penny spent. I know Freud makes Diablo but apart from the positive and negative tooth angle there is definitely a difference. Immediately after using this…

I have been using Freud saw blades and router bits for many years and have been very happy with the quality, but this home use only blade is not cutting cleanly on my Hitachi sliding surface. seen. I don't know if it's a negative -5 degree angle, but it cuts through the wood leaving burns and a large burr at the exit of the wood. The blade seems sharp and I don't see any damage so I'm going to take it to a sawmill doctor here in New Zealand and see if sharpening solves the problem. The supply…

Nice blade. I was about to install it when I read the "Full Cut" printed on the blade, which lists the width measurements (why does it show size in three different units?). So I'm not looking at the functional quality of the blade at the moment. just dimensional confusion. See my picture of the blade where I circled the THIN notch in the large stripe and the FULL notch in the small rectangle. That's the biggest confusion, but there's more! My next picture is the official spec from a promotional
