🌀 Improved DEWALT DWA171440 7-1/4-Inch Circular Saw Blade with 40-Tooth Design for Enhanced Performance Review

If it weren't for the sawdust I'd have to see if the saw cut through the 1-3/4 tenon joint of the walnut countertop. I have never used a circular saw that cuts through such a smooth surface with so little effort. I highly recommend this blade. Bought it for every Dewalt circular saw I got my sons for Christmas.

I was surprised at how cleanly it cuts the plywood I used for the shelves. It was a lot cleaner than the one I once bought from Ace Hardware, something like the 80T with similar specs. I have not used any rims other than DeWalt and this brand from Ace and given the price I doubt I will. In fact, I think the original DeWalt blade that came with my saw, which was designed for normal rough cuts, made cleaner cuts than the Ace brand.

I recently had to build a new deck and bought this blade for this project. I usually just take a cheap blade and throw it away at the end of a project. There is one big difference between this blade and a regular $10 disposable blade. I have used this blade for cutting double thread wood and mahogany. The blade cuts much more efficiently, the cuts are much cleaner and splinter free, and the saw just seems to glide over the cut. The deck is finished and the blade is still sharp. I'll sharpen…
