Oshlun SBW-080064 8-Inch 64 Tooth ATB Fine Finishing Saw Blade with 5/8-Inch Diamond Knockout Arbor Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The BAD news is these blades are overpriced and worthless for finish trim applications; my Dewalt & Milwaukee 8.25" 40 tooth framing blades run truer and produce far better results.

The GOOD news is they have a diamond knockout, so I can burn them up in my worm drive cutting framing and sheathing.

I purchased 2 of these blades intended for finish trim use on a Rockwell Sawbuck, but the cut quality is terrible.The blades are twisted and warped across the expansion slots, and look more like 4 bladed fans than precision finish blades.They wobble (runout) .008-.010 inches, which is huge for an 8" diameter blade.I cut samples from 2"x2" square oak and pine and tried to fit the pieces back together.Instead of a tight fitting "glue quality" joint, the ends were way out of flat and rocked against each other.The cut faces were scored, and "tearout" was severe.

As for wear life, we'll have to see.The blade in the above photo has a green paint job and reads "Carbide C4 micro-grain tungsten", but the blades I received are different, and have NO markings as to carbide grade.
