If you can find a better blade, let me know. June 27, 2008 This blade is amazing. I bought it for ripping 3/4" birch ply to be used for a bookcase. I used it in a Milwaukee circular saw with an edge guide. This blade produced absolutely no tearout or chipping. The edge was finished as good, if not better than my table saw can do.
Don't bother with a plywood blade. In my experience, they get hot and burn your material. This blade has made me a Freud man for life.
Clean Cutter March 19, 2008 This blade cuts clean! I replaced a 24 tooth blade with this one. The difference is incredible. I used this blade mostly for cutting plywood panels for cabinetry. I couldn't be more pleased.

WOW!!! This blade cut MDF glass smooth... I had minimal tear out and the blade was perfectly balanced. I can't believe how well this blade cuts compared to a 140t plywood blade. This Avanti blade also runs very true and stays cool - thanks largely to the massive "shearing vents". I haven't had a problem with material sticking to the blade, nor have I had to cut anything that would lead to binding with it yet, but the silver ICE coating sure makes it look cool... like a rim on your saw, lol. That being said, I'm not sure that I'd use the 24t version of this blade for heavy duty work, this seems to be a delicate blade due to those vents. The Diablo line also by Freud works really well, especially for decking with the slick coat. For a finishing blade however, the 40t Avanti is awesome!

If I've ever had proof that spending a few more $ for quality is worth it, this is it. Bought for project calling for 4 sheets of 3/4 plywood. Am using Asian Birch plywood. Almost all crosscutting being done with Milwaukee circ saw and now this blade. Wow! The saw glides (I mean realy glides) through the cut and with no splintering! I wish I could give more than 5 stars.

This blade is excellent! Very smooth cuts on birch cabinet grade plywood.
