Editor's Review: New sawblade is thicker and sharper than the competition
by John White
review date: July 1, 2007
The new Freud Premier Fusion is different from all other carbide sawblades due to the teeth on this sawblade, which are sharp—pointy sharp—the way that steel-tooth sawblades used to be. This blade is several ounces heavier than other blades I have used. The extra weight comes from the blade's thickness. Combine sharp tooth geometry with a rigid blade plate, and not too surprisingly, you get a sawblade that cuts exceptionally well.This good general-purpose blade is available at a reasonable price, but be careful with it. It bites even when standing still.
