DCB1280 12 in. 80 Tooth Edge Circular Saw Blade for Extra-Fine Finish

I have been very pleased with this blade so far. I use it my Bosch 12" Sliding Miter saw and it works very well. I get nice, clean, smooth cuts with minimal tear-out, if any, provided I don't rush the cut. The finished cut requires minimal sanding if any, depending on your application. The thin kerf is nice for saving material. I have probably made over 300 cuts with it so far and have had no issues. For less than $50, I think this blade is outstanding value. Of course, there are other brand blades which are superior in cut quality and longevity, but you are going to pay for them. I will, of course, post any updates as the present themselves.

I’m a professional cabinet installer. I’ve used pretty much all the blades out there. I was really excited and skeptical to find this blade. Excited because I like the Bosch spade bits and this was supposed to be an extension of that daredevil (I think that’s it) line. I was skeptical because of the price but it was worth it to try. Blade cut beautifully and did not wobble. With the thin kerf my miters on my crown were smooth and quick. I can’t attest however to how long the blade would last under normal use. Unfortunately about three weeks in one of my guys hit a 15ga nail and it stopped cutting so smooth. Looking forward to getting it sharpened though.

New blade for my compound miter saw - super nice. It doesn't shred up all my wood now. That ripping blade the saw came with made a mess of small pieces. Trust the brand, so I bought their blade - first one - and would happily do so again.

These blades may cost a little more than what's available at the local big box home improvement center, but the life span of these blades is at least 50% greater than those blades so in the long run it's a wash. I use the 80 tooth blade for trim work and wood flooring. Perfect cuts every time even when cutting harder woods like tigerwood. This goes through MDF like a hot knife through butter. I've also used it to cut treated lumber from time to time rather than changing out the blade one with fewer teeth with no problems. It may take an extra second to get through wet wood, but no binding or kickback. I won't bother with any other blades out there as long as I can get my hands on a Daredevil blade.

I'm very particular about the quality of blades I purchase. This blade far exceeds my expectations for a non-premium price. These are made by Freud for Bosch. I use this blade for general use on the miter saw. It cuts aluminum very well, and retains its sharpness for a long time. It's no comparison to a Forrest Chopmaster , but it's not a $200 blade either. You can't beat the value of this blade for the cost.

This blade started very sharp and stayed sharp for a while, but I was using it on C5 laminate so the blade needs sharpening now, after a 500 sq ft flooring job. If you're using this blade on wood, it'll probably last a lot longer. It cuts true and fine and is worthy of the effort to resharpen it if you do dull it on laminate flooring. I am not a pro, just an average guy who likes to work with with my hands.

Yes there are better blades if your a professional cabinet maker but you cant beat the value on these. They leave an ultra smooth cut and if you use pitch and gum remover once in a while on it and don't cut nails, you'll get years of use from it.

Have used the blade a few times now and it cuts very smooth and clean. It seems to be a good blade for the price. I guess we’ll have to see how well it stands up over time used.

tres belle coupe

Fine accurate cuts for crown moulding.

The blade cuts extremely good, my only concern is that the blade wobbles a little on the exit cut at the back

It's a 12 inch crosscut sawblade. It does 12 inch crosscut sawbladey things. It would make a terrible frisbee or dinner plate, but it cuts wood well. I would imagine it would cut metal poorly, but that's not what it's designed for.
