(More customer reviews)This is a sweet framing blade, though maybe a bit overpowered by my 15A Milwaukee saw, it works great on 13A and smaller saws, especially for ripping fir or pine. I did get unacceptablle blade flutter and runout in thicker OSB. It really is not up to the task of cutting hardwoods; the kerf is too thin, and maybe the cutwork expansion slots weaken it. Installing a deck of hard and demse ipe wood (from Brazil) it couldn't handle the wood at all. But to be fair, this is a framing blade, and as such should be used ONLY for fir and pine or other light, soft framing woods. When used appropriately it cuts straight, clean, and very, very fast. The teeth are very durable.
