Forrest WW10307100 Woodworker II 10-Inch 30 Tooth 5/8-Inch Arbor 3/32-Inch Kerf Circular Saw Blade

Forrest's blades offer a superior cut that leaves a rip-cut saw edge that is as smooth as if it had been sanded, and a cross-cut edge that is almost mark-free. The blades run very quietly, and backside tearout in plywood is negligible. Each blade is virtually hand-made. The plate is hand-tensioned (up to 15 minutes per blade), superior C-4 carbide teeth are hand-brazed to the plate, and the blade is straightened and re-straightened multiple times throughout the process. Think of a Forrest blade as a tool in your shop, not an accessory. Forrest stands behind its blades by offering a sharpening service that bring blades back to the exact tolerances offered in a new blade. And this same exacting service is available for other manufacturer's blades as well, so they should come back better than new. Forrest Woodworker 1 Saw Blade For Radial and Table Saws. These trim and cross-cut ALL PURPOSE blades give scratch-free POLISHED cuts on wood, RIP or CROSSCUT, up to 2-inches thick. They have a 30 degree Alternate Top Bevel with a 5 degree Face Hook on 10-inch diameters and smaller.
Customer Review: Good- but not as good as the 40 tooth version
I bought this as a less-costly replacement for a 40 tooth thin kerf WWII that I accidently ran a screw through and broke off twelve teeth. This was touted as almost as good and a good choice for an underpowered saw. I used this with my 1.5 hp. unisaw with the stabilizer disc. I would agree that it is almost as good as the 40 tooth and is better than the other brands I have used. It tends to burn more than the 40 tooth with not quite as clean a glue line, and for the results, I would spend the extra money for the 40 tooth, as the results with it are fantastic.
Customer Review: Forrest is TOP quality
I have a very nice cabinetmaker's shop, and appreciate good tools, both hand and machine. This is the third Forrest blade I've bought, because they are SO superior to other brands. (I also have their 80 tooth crosscut, and a thin kerf combo blade). I even quit having my saw/planer/jointer blades sharpened locally, because Forrest does such a superior job sharpening all of these. It's not as convenient, but the quality is worth it. You will NOT regret spending the money for this blade.

Customer Review: Disappointed
I bought this blade because of someone's recommendation. I am disappointed with the performance of this blade as it causes a lot of burnt marks on my wood, both solid and plywood. It also does not cut as smoothly as my lower cost blades. May be it needs to be sharpened but it is brand new and I can't find anyone locally to sharpen it.
Customer Review: Woodworker II Rocks!
Truly the finest blade I have ever used. It sliced through 2 inch thick Hard Maple and Purple Heart like a hot knife through butter. I highly recommend this blade!

Customer Review: Very Good Quality Blade
This blade was installed on a glue line rip saw.Did a run of Mahogany that was burning with the other blades that we had.I then installed the Freud blade and got very good results.The teeth and carbide are large,so you can figure on several resharpenings.Best of all was the price.I will probably order 2 more soon.
