Irwin Tools IRWIN Marples 10-Inch Miter/Table Saw Blade, ATB, 50-Tooth (1807368)

I bought this over 5 year's ago. I got lucky and got one that was made in Italy. I've cut everything with it, Oak, Hickory, Pine, Poplar, Plywood, MDF, OSB, Maple, etc. It's a great General Purpose blade that cuts clean. All I've had to do to it is occasionally take it off the saw and clean the pitch off the blade with some simple green. When I put it back on it cuts like new everytime. My DeWalt saw burned out and now I transferred it to a new one. I'd buy another one if I'd have to but I don't.

Very pleased with the quality of cuts, both rip cuts and crosscuts. This blade lives in my table saw most of the time and performs very well, especially for the price. Cut quality is better than the Diablo 40 tooth combo blade from Home Depot. This won't replace a dedicated rip blade if you need to make a lot of rip cuts, nor will it replace an 80 tooth combination blade when you want chip-out free cuts in delicate materials, but for day-to-day use in the shop, it works very well.

This Blade is perfect for what it's designed to be "Combo Blade"I use them on PM66 cabinet saw as well as the Job site portables as long as motor has the power to turn it.Blade is good for 2 to 3 re-sharpenings of regular use.Great for the price and definitely out perform the comprable read blade.This is Not intended for Serious Production shop blade use. Those cost 4 times as much.

Picture of the blade in ad clearly shows printing MADE IN ITALY. Thats misleading. The blade is fine, this is a replacement. But, I paid about $10 more because it said made in Italy than I would have paid at a different site. I try not to buy from China when possible. If I scrolled down to read it does say origin China. So, lesson, ignore the picture.

I normally don't post reviews until I have tried the product, but I wanted to address other comments saying that these blades are now made in China. I can't speak for other purchases, but I have attached a picture to show that at least the one I ordered does indeed match the picture in the advertisement, and is made in Italy.

I use this blade for our general purpose tablesaw in a small cabinet shop. Great for ripping plywood, hardwood and also very little tearout when cross cutting plywood an other veneers. This blade seems to last forever between sharpening. Awesome blade for the price.

Excellent blade. Smooth cuts in fir, oak and maple. I'm using it on a 50 year old Delta contractor saw with 3/4 hp.I would buy it again.

I've bought a lot of 10 inch blades over the last 40 years, DeWalt, Craftsman, Freud, Infinity, you name it, I've used it. This blade has become my favorite. Clean cuts, well balanced, not that expensive, and has held up well for sharpness the last couple of months under extreme use. I'll continue buying Irwin Marples in the future until someone can show me a better deal.
