Thanks Hewood!!! Just finished the order....

[hewood]

You're welcome! :) That blade always surprises and impresses the heck out me.

[garager]

Great thanks hewood for the tip, I also went and placed an order, great prices and I'm not in a hurry.

Just bought a Forrest 40 tooth WWII, $72. Thanks for the tip. A week ago bought a Freud 508 dado for $129 on Amazon, to be delivered tomorrow. Thanks again....

[garager]

I just couldn't handle it, just got done ordering more blades and stabilizer, why not I said to myself, good deal go for it.

[skipsax]

Heywood,
These look great. Thanks for the tip. I have the same WWII blade (which I love) on my 3650. Do you or anyone else have a suggestion for my Delta 10" compound miter saw? The blad on that is a burned up Oldham. I avoid using it for anything critical at the moment...
Thanks.

A couple of possibilities:


Freud LU85R010 ~ $56 shipped

Freud LU91R010 ~ $47

DeWalt DW7647 ~ $48
http://www.epinions.com/content_245518143108
Freud LU96R010 ~ $52


Any of the appropriate (low to neg hook) Freud Diablo or TK/Avanti series would work well too for lower cost, they're just not made to quite the same standard as the "L" series.

[FINER9998]

hewood...how do you get the 20% discount? Am I correct that you got the LU88R010 for $36 delivered and that's a good table saw blade for finish work?
Thanks.

[SWLigler]

Thanks.

Thanks for the heads up Hewood! Just ordered two for myself. Got both for less than the cost of one decent blade at regular prices!

You get the 20% discount by entering the promotion code where it asks "Have any gift cards, gift certificates or promotional claim codes?"

The Code is: 2OOFFPTA

Thanks.

The Code is: 2OOFFPTA to get it for $36 shipped. It's a great finish blade IMO. The neat part is that it rips surprisingly well making it very suitable for general purpose work too. I often just leave it on the saw for weeks on end. It should be a great match for a contractor saw or jobsite saw.

Ok I got the promotion code # from you guys, and I ordered a bunch of blades and a few other things at the same time. Now I'm wondering where did you get these promotion code? First time ever ordering from amazon and i couldn't find anything about promotion codes other then entering your code # at checkout. Did they email you with these codes because your great past customers? I think I'll be checking them out alot more now that I've seen some of their good deals, thanks for the info, I did save a lot of $$$ buying from amazon....

[zenophus]

Holy Cow Farts! Amazon delivered my new blade in one day!! I'm going to play out in the shop.....

[garager]

Any idea where the DeWalt (DW7150PT (http://www.amazon.com/DW7150PT-10-Inch-Precision-Combination-Circular/dp/B000HCZ4JS/sr=8-35/qid=1170959005/ref=sr_1_35/102-8334788-1982556?ie=UTF8&s=hi)) blade is made, or what kind of quality it is? With the 20% off, this thin kerf 50 tooth combo blade would be $28!

djb,
I was just going on hewood's recommendation and link:

DeWalt DW7647 ~ $48
http://www.epinions.com/content_245518143108

It came up as a couple pennies less than $48 AFTER the code was entered.

I would like your opinions. I can get a WWII for $42 or a LU83 for
$6. I can get the extra $30 off if I get an Amazon Visa. Which would you chose. The LOML said do what I want, so that didn't make the decision any easier.

The LU83 is a nice blade. The WWII is the reference by which most others are compared....at that price, get it and never look back.

I think the DW7150PT is made in the US, but I"m not positive. I just read a positive report from a new owner on another forum about that blade.

[Wood_Junkie]

Just another option for purchasing some nice saw blades. Peachtree Woodworking is having an online-only special. 3 Freud 10-inch blades (variety) for about 50% off list prices.

Thank you hewood. I just got my TK WWII in. It is such a great blade. I played around cutting up wood for like an hour, just cutting up stuff. I couldn't believe the differance a great blade makes.
