This is a hard blade. I use it with my Skil table saw (9.5 inch). It does the job well. It's stronger than any other blade you could get at Home Depot, Lowe's, or Ace (tried all three places and the blades snapped instantly). It's hard to find a good blade for such a small saw, but I think the MK Morse fills that need well. My first one broke, but that was because I was trying to go too fast, not making relief cuts, and the tension was too tight. I bought another one and it's just a no-brainer.
