FreudIndustrial Thin Kerf Glue Line Ripping Saw Blade with Premium Tico Hi-Density Carbide Ripping Blend for Maximum Performance - 10" Diameter, 30 Teeth - LM75R010

This blade has been very effective in my table saw. The cuts have been very clean and smooth. No burning. It appears to retain sharpness well after several months of occasional use.

I bought a Dewalt contractor saw to replace my aging "hand-me-down" from my father. I installed this Freud blade to replace the one that came with the table saw. The saw is great, especially the fence system, but the saw blade is a cheap item that gets included in new saws like this one. It keeps the price down, but almost everyone knows that you need to upgrade immediately to get the most out of your saw. I was dazzled with the performance of this blade. WOW! It cuts through plywood and hardwoods beautifully. The sharpness is exquisite and the narrow kerf helps to keep the rip clean and free of unnecessary friction. Of course, you need to tune your saw and get those 90s as close to perfect as you can get them. I spent time with the tuning and used several 90 degree tools to double and triple check my adjustments. I had heard of the quality of Freud blades and decided to give it a try with the new table saw. No regrets, no burns, and no binding. Don't hesitate to give this blade a try. You'll be impressed.

First of all, let me say, that Freud brand never let me down. Their Italian made blades and bits are of superb quality. I own 6 Freud blades and about 10 Freud router bits. All of them perform as expected. I guess, like with any other mass manufacturer, there is a chance you will get an occasional dud, but this would be an exception rather then often occurrence comparing to some other and cheaper brands.I own an old Craftsman 10 inch table saw. It is a great saw, but at 110V it is way under powered to cut as smoothly as I want it to cut. It doesn't cut near as well as a 3.5 HP professional table saw that I used in High School workshop class in the late 80-s.I learned how to use my saw properly. First of all, my saw blade is perfectly parallel to the fence. Second, the blade spins in the plane and does not wobble at all according to my dial indicator. I mostly use thin kerf blade, it cuts hardwood easier. ZCI is a must.I do get burn marks occasionally, all of them are my fault, because I do not keep a constant feed speed. I normally will rip a piece about 1/8 in wider then I need it to be. Then, I clean 1/16 in on each side to get the piece to size. It takes extra time, but as a result I get a mirror smooth surface.Buy this blade without hesitation, learn how to use it, and you will not be disappointed. Money well spent.

There are more expensive and, allegedly, better blades out there. The price difference, however, is astronomical. These Freud blades are a good value. I think they have a great life too. I tend to be lazy and not change blades depending on material. I can saw melamine and hardwoods with these blades and they stay accurate and relatively sharp.You need to make sure your table saw fence and blade are aligned properly because this thin line blade will leave more saw marks than thicker blades. However, I like the thin blade because it slices through hardwoods faster, with less burning, and it wastes less material. I feel like I get more yield out of my lumber with this blade.

Most of the cutting I do on my DeWalt jobsite saw is ripping. I've used many blades but this is my favorite. Cuts a very clean line with any burn marks and almost doesn't need any sanding. Cut some tenons and surprisingly they turned out fine as well.

I love these blades. This is my fourth one but this one came in with a broken tooth.... disappointed.

After some light reading I decided I needed a glue line rip blade. Freud has become my blade of choice for all my tools including router bits. I’ve had nothing but flawless results from both the industrial line and the lower rent Diablo line available at a certain orange big box store and Amazon.I was making a very critical and visible book match glue up for my mantle, it’s the focal point of my new living room and something I’ll sit and stare at and would lament any flaws or less than perfect bookmatch. No pressure, lol. I considered different methods to make the joint but decided on this blade to do the job.I set up the blade in my saw with a Forrest damper and took some extra time getting everything set up best as possible before making some test cuts. From the first cut I was impressed versus any of my combination or cheaper rip blades. Mirror smooth and clean as a whistle! This blade is a winner!!!My friend who’s an accomplished woodworker couldn’t get over how nice the glue line was, perfect isn’t a word I use lightly but this is damn close. As a noobie at fine woodworking and getting questions from someone way more advanced made me feel pretty good but honestly it was the blade. My glue line came out just like I envisioned and I feel it would go toe to toe with glue lines done by anyone. Yes I felt I earned a seat at the big kids table due in large part to how well this blade does it’s job.I’ve since purchased the finest crosscut blade Freud offers and keep those two reserved for critical cuts and use the Diablo blades or several other brands for everyday cuts that aren’t as high profile. A cheap sharp blade will out perform a expensive dull one any day.That way I expect these two blades to last for years as I’m a weekend warrior at best.If your looking for near perfect rip cuts I think you’ll be happy with this. In full disclosure I’ve not made a cut with a Forrest blade (or any other of the ultra expensive options) but I simply can’t see much room for improvement over the Freud.

A perfect blade for all rip cuts.
