Great blade but…
This is an awesome blade as far as cutting performance goes. It is very sharp and cuts very well. The teflon coating really works to alleviate binding and helps it to run cooler. The teeth are nice and beefy for resharpening. The only thing I don’t like is that the carbide is either ground too sharp or it’s too brittle. I don’t really know. What I do know is that I keep finding chips on the teeth when I know for a fact no foriegn material has been passed through. Nails, staples etc. This has happened with several Freud blades in my unisaw. I recommend the Forrest woodworker 2 for ripping. They don’t have the teflon coating but they seem to hold up better over the long haul.

Great rip blade
A lot of the projects I build require edge gluing boards to make wider panels. In the past my normal technique would be to rip the boards to a uniform width and the run them through the jointer to get a good enough edge for a nearly invisible glue line.
This blade is advertised to make glue line rip cuts and it does just that. I’m able to make rip cuts in thick hardwood that require no further preparation prior to glue up. That includes some 13/16 maple that I just used for a dovetailed blanket chest. That makes for a nice time saver.
Bottom line; If you do a lot of ripping, this blade is definitely worth the investment.
