<div dir="ltr">Good to know, Sid. Thanks for sharing.<div><br></div><div>Along those same lines I purchased a 12" blade when I went to install prefinished flooring in a house. My past experience has been that the finish will quickly dull a saw blade. I purchased an 80 tooth two pack of blades from Home Depot. Avanti brand (I swear I've seen those at Harbor Freight, too). At the time it was $30 for a two pack, so I figured it was throw-away. That first blade made it through all of the flooring and trim for the whole house (1300 sq ft). Not a bad deal at the time. I see now it's $54 for a 2-pack. </div><div><br></div><div>Regards,<br></div><div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div>-Steve<br></div></div></div></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Mar 15, 2022 at 3:48 PM Sid Hymes via Woodworkers <<a href="mailto:woodworkers@lists.sawdusters.org">woodworkers@lists.sawdusters.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:garamond,serif;font-size:large">FWIW, I just bought an Amazon-branded Denali 100 carbide tooth, 12" blade for my DeWalt to x-cut a number of 3/4" plywood pieces. Given it was less than $30, I did not have high expectations. Fooled me: the blade works great! Every bit as good as the more expensive, national-branded blades similarly made in China.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:garamond,serif;font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:garamond,serif;font-size:large">Why pay the premium...?<br></div></div>
