HARDWIN 10 Inch 80T Fine Finish Miter Saw Blade, 5/8 Inch Arbor Carbide Tipped Crosscut Blade for Hardwood and Plywood

Great for sheet metal and will cut thicker material just a little slower

The blade feels nice and sturdy as it should. Overall looks well made and the teeth are very sharp. It fit the miter saw without any issues (using a Ryobi 10 in. Corded Sliding Compound Miter Saw). The cuts are by far the cleanest and smoothest cuts I have made with the saw. There are almost no marks left on the cuts. With consumables only time will tell about longevity, but right out of the box, still, they are the easiest cuts I have made, effortless.

Normally I wouldn’t even consider looking at a blade at this price point. Not for my compound miter saw, job site table saw or my cabinet saw. I generally spend anywhere between a little over twice this amount (if I’m in a bind and need a blade now), to 6 times this amount.

I was really surprised with the quality of the blade I received. I had a few rough cuts to make with my miter saw so tonight I threw it on my saw and started in.
The saw blade comes extremely sharp! Like just on the edge of cutting your fingers while putting it on sharp.
The blade is well balanced, with little to no vibration and cuts as smooth as butter.
After 204 cuts 3/4” by 3.5 inches I decided to see how the blade held up. Figured hardwoods are notorious for tearing out when you use anything other than the sharpest blades. I cut a highly figured piece of maple for my 205th and 206th cuts. Look at the pictures and judge for yourself. This certainly isn’t the finest blade on the market but for this price point it’s going to be difficult to beat. Even at a price point of more than double it’s a solid buy.

I ordered this 80-tooth blade to have as a backup for my other 80-tooth blade — which I use routinely on my 10 inch radial arm saw for most of my straight cutting operations. I checked the cutting quality of this new blade today with a piece of three-quarter inch clear pine. The results are shown in the attached photo.

The blade worked beautifully. I'm very pleased.

1. It sliced through the pine quickly — almost like a hot knife through butter — and left a very smooth edge, as shown in the photo.

2. The face of the wood piece shown in the photo was positioned facedown on my radial arm saw table during cutting, Despite the fact that my saw table has a substantial, deep groove running the length of the cutting path — leaving space below the bottom of the kerf and therefore providing no support immediately below the kerf — the amount of splintering on that side of the cut is quite tiny.

Unless I ultimately need this 80-tooth blade to REPLACE my other 80-tooth blade, I'll reserve this new blade for my most-demanding wood cuts.

Right now I see no reason not to rate this product five stars. If anything changes that opinion in the future, I may revisit this review.

I recently bought a new table saw. It’s the type of saw that will immediately stop the blade if it comes in contact with your skin. Since I got a new saw, I decided on a new saw blade since I’ll be working on a project that requires some very precise and fine cuts. I chose the Hardwin Blade and it significantly improved the cut quality on poplar and plywood, eliminating splinters and burn marks experienced with my older blade during a cabinet build. Its sharp, well-ground teeth and solid construction delivered clean, tear-out-free edges on various woods when used with a table saw. The laser-cut body and non-stick coating prevented heat and resin buildup, maintaining clean cuts even after extended use with minimal vibration and noise. While excellent for straight cuts on a table saw, its hook angle is less suitable for miter cuts and requires a slower feed rate for the best finish. Overall, it offers outstanding value for achieving smooth, finish-ready cuts.

I'm using this blade for primarily rough cuts for outdoor raised garden beds, and it certainly fits the bill for that use. As projects I'm working on are all for the outdoors, fine miter type work isn't needed, so, although the cuts so far are smooth, I'm not expecting cabinet grade cuts.

Overall quality is good, the welds on the teeth seem well-done and precise, and for around $30 (at review time) I can't complain about the price, especially for a 10" blade.

Put this in my tablesaw and it cuts smoothly and easily

I was looking for a dedicated blade to put in my sliding chop saw for doing vinyl siding and settled on this. The blade arrived nice and sharp, the teeth are firmly welded to the main body. When cutting vinyl a high tooth count is preferred and with 80 this one fit the bill. When cutting siding the blade actually gets installed backwards to prevent cracking the vinyl. The blade fit the saw perfectly and spins up with no vibration. I have made over 1000ft of cuts and there is no sign of the blade wearing out any time soon. I am extremely happy with the overall quality and think it was a great deal.

It arrived well-packed and protected. I was skeptical due to the low price, but it cuts as well as blades three times more expensive. I haven’t used it long enough to judge its longevity, but for general construction work (softwood, plywood), it should last. The teeth have enough material for multiple resharpenings, but at this price, replacing it is likely cheaper. Good product, great price. Recommended.

Pretty decent circular saw blade. With 80 teeth your getting a very nice clean ripping cut with the caveat that nearly all blades cut nicely right out of the box. That said, nothing about this blade strikes me as inexpensive and cheap. It should meet the needs for most weekend woodworkers. As noted, it worked well ripping softwood boards to width but when crosscutting some white softwoods there was a little tear out of some fine fibers but nothing a little sanding couldn't clean up. Again this was a brand new blade so I would expect with use that tear out will become more pronounced. As others have mentioned the rake on the cutting teeth is not set for miter work but rather for ripping. This blade will probably come up a bit short for fine miter woodworking in that application.

This has a +15 degree rake (hook) angle. The positive rake pulls material into the cut for faster cutting, at the expense of increasing tear-out on brittle materials like melamine and some plastics. This style of blade works best on table saws. For a miter saw, you generally want closer to zero or even a negative rake. Make sure to check to find the correct specifications for a blade given the application(s) you will be using it under.

This blade's is well built, with the 80 tooth count on a 10". It is very similar in design to a lower tooth count Freud Diablo blade, which I swapped out to install this one to do a bit of finish cutting on visible trim. I made several test cuts, all of which were clean without excessive tear-out. Ripping performance is what you expect for an 80 tooth - not so fast. The actual production finish cutting from this blade turned out perfect.

OH, how I love this saw blade!
It is VERY durable and made so well.
The teeth are marvelous and the blade is very level.
It is a high-quality piece of work and I am so happy with it!

This10-Inch 80-Teeth ATB Circular Saw Blade with 5/8 Inch Arbor is a quality blade and good value for the money. The 80T gives the cut clean and very little chip-out. The carbide teeth are sharp and the blade fits and works well in my 10-inch table saw. For the quality and price, I recommend it.

Solid saw blade. Installed on my crosscut saw and I'm getting super clean cuts. Will create nice rip cuts if you're willing to wait forever. But perfect for getting smooth cuts on a miter saw.

I got the 10" 80 tooth blade to fit my table saw. It works well, very smooth cuts as would be expected from an 80 tooth blade. My sliding miter saw uses 12" blades so I won't use it on that saw. Its worth noting that the hook angle on this blade makes it a table saw blade, not really a miter saw blade.

A very nice 80-tooth blade that cross cuts very well, leaving an ultra smooth finish. I am using this blade on an old radial arm saw and it works as well as any higher priced blade I've used. The carbide teeth are very consistent and precisely ground. I expect this blade will cut beautifully for a long time. The manufacturing quality is excellent.

Blade arrived quickly and cuts wood like butter! Because I was working on pieces which required a clean cut, I purchased the 80 tooth count blade. The blades easily cut through 3/4 and 1 inch poplar and equally so with hardwoods.
The blade has a good balance and doesn't vibrate or 'sing' as some blades are prone to.
Teeth was extremely sharp and ground perfectly, leaving a very clean edge which required a minimum of sanding.
For the cost of the blade, it's absolutely a fantastic bargain and as we have blade sharpening service nearby, I wholly intend to use the blade and have sharpened as required.
I'm very pleased with this blade and it suits my little shop to perfection.

Wow! I installed this blade on my old Craftsman radial arm saw. It replaced a 28 tooth combination blade and the difference is amazing. I crosscut a piece of 5/4 (actual one inch thick) cedar decking and there was no resistance whatsoever. It cut like butter with minimal noise. The cut end grain looks and feels like it was sanded. This is a great blade for smooth cuts.

It seems to be of good quality. Cuts smooth with nice clean cut very happy
