Couldn't get any better for the price

Perfect for my old Crasftman bandsaw that finally broke the bandsaw. Okay, I broke it by pushing through a thick chunk, but hey. the blade *was* old!

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Safety

Very bad cutting knives.

Really rough blade. It looks like you have an ax and chop wood. I would not recommend this at all. I like a straight cut. My old blade is faster and smoother. I don't like these blades at all. Honest opinion.

Pros
  • Handy piece
Cons
  • Not all fit

Band saws are good for band saws

I just broke my last saw blade when my order arrived. I never realized how bad my existing blades were until I put one on. Excellent blades that cut easily even on wet wood. I just placed another order so I have some spares on hand. I would highly recommend them and they showed up the next day.

Pros
  • Heavy Duty
Cons
  • Compatibility

Good value power tool parts and accessories

I used this blade to make some test cuts on a 1" blank. The blade worked fine. "Best finish" blades mean the teeth are spread wide, producing a somewhat rough cut but allowing for faster cuts in larger material. For this you would use a 6 tpi sheet. If you want a very smooth cut you need to buy a 14tpi blade.

Pros
  • good item
Cons
  • trade in available

Spare blade is important!

Bought a band saw at a flea market, tried saws and finally bought new saw blades. Doesn't matter! The bandsaw now works like clockwork. Couldn't find this size locally so bought a pair of these because as woodworkers know a blade will never break until you're in the middle of a project!

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Difficult to say

It's awful And the size isn't listed on the box:

How to. I broke the band for my saw. I measure it's 56-7/8. That's why I'm ordering this. After waiting in the middle of my project through my fault for a new band, I got this and IT IS 60-1/2! What the hell. I'm angry at this moment. DO NOT BUY this product. Either Bosch doesn't know what he's doing, or it's the seller's fault. In addition, it is cheaply made. So light that it bursts under any pressure. This aggravates the situation. Take risks if you want, don't say I didn't warn you.

Pros
  • For general woodwork
Cons
  • Available in black only

Extra wide kerf for band saws

This is a coarse blade with a VERY wide kerf due to the tooth angle. I've used it to cut 4β€³ thick hard oak on a regular, tiny, cheap 10β€³ band saw from the 1980's. It works, but the cut is huge. I don't know how long this blade will last. I've cut several (probably 10) 4" boards with it and it's still sharp, but I'm not entirely sure about the quality of the blade. I have a dumb, powerful 24" circular saw that I fucking abuse), these cheap saw blades are probably an acceptable solution for me…

Pros
  • Optimized tooth geometry for best performance
Cons
  • alt

Great blade, but NOT for smooth, delicate cuts in thin material.

I ordered this blade for my 10" Craftsman band saw and it fits perfectly. good tracking. However, due to the large lateral tooth pitch (1/8 inch), this saw blade is NOT suitable when making smooth, detailed cuts on thin, delicate material. To do this you will need a 15 TPI blade or similar with a finer tooth pattern. I didn't know when I ordered that wide cutting blade from him and will probably get a 15 TPI blade for my regular cutting jobs (my saw came with it). A good blade for what it's…

Pros
  • Premium materials resist heat build-up for long life
Cons
  • No instructions
