  Best saw blade out there November 17, 2008
I have probably over the 57 years into wood working never used as fine as the FORREST 10" Woodworker II saw blade. This is the best blade bare none on the market today. I also have the Forrest 8" dado King and the Forrest 12" 60 tooth miter saw blade. All exelent blades. I will owne or use no other.
excellent for low power saws September 14, 2008

I have had this blade for a few months now and have used it to cut over 400 bd ft of hardwood (mostly walnut) with a Bosch 4000 portable Job-site table saw. I have used many different blades on this saw over the years (freud thin, Dewalt woodworker, etc etc) and this is the best blade I have ever used for this type of saw. The thin kerf is perfect for under powered saws. Now for my 3 hp Jet TS I use a full kerf blade (forrest is great as is the freud fusion) because the thicker metal is more stable and leaves a cleaner cut. I highly recommend this blade for ALL portable saws and any saw with less then 1 1/2 hp. It makes a very clean cut in both cross cuts and rips. This blade excels at cutting hardwoods and is worth the higher price.
 Good Investment, not expensive when on sale for this high quality blade August 15, 2008
I buy this woodworker II 10" 40 tooth 3/64" kerf & dampener on Amazon.com
I cut & rip softwood & hardwood. The cut is a lot smoother with this blade comparing to Bosch blade shipped w/ 4000-09 table saw.
Price range is around $70-100.
Although it's a thin kerf 3/64" compare to 1/8" of original Bosch blade, the carbide teeth is at least 2x bigger. You can resharpen this blade several times.
The joint between carbide teeth and the steel is kind of rusty when I receive it. The teeth is protected by vinyl during S&H. I may send email to Forrest to ask why. I don't see it's affect the cut quality. Just wonder why it's like that on brand new blade.

After buying two different Freud blades for my miter saw and not liking the quality I read some reviews for the Freud to see again if there was something wrong, I discovered one review that said I should forget the Freud blade and go straight for the Forrest WW11, I did and I can say there is not a blade out there that can hold a candle to this blade. when I opened the package I thought I bought a used blade because it had been personlized, the teeth are so large and sharp you must handle it carefully or get cut. So I installed it and you would not believe it, It is spot on true and with only 40 teeth it cuts so smooth it looks like its went thru the jointer. so if you are looking for the very best look no further, put this blade on your table saw and you can cut anything, anyway.
