great blade best price:
I looked at all the big stores. Home depot,lowes and ace hardware. Not one of these stores carry Hardie blades. Which really surprises me considering how popular hardie is these days. Some carry them in the 7 1/4 but none carry a 10 inch blade. I work with and for my dad's building business.I bought the blade along with some gauges and my dad could not believe the difference. He had purchased a blade from a building material supplier for $40 and it was a blade for cutting concrete. It worked but it cut... more info
Cuts like butter!:
This blade does a great job by cutting hardiplank siding. I am just finishing up a house remodel and used this blade to install all of my siding. This blade cuts smooth and is still cutting well.

The dust wasnt that bad from these blades, nothing like a standard carbide blade. I recommend wearing a respirator when cutting this siding. This stuff isnt good to breath! Definitely a must have... more info
Lived Up To My Expectation:
I must say I was really impressed with the first cut. I was surprised how quite and smooth the cuts were and, as specified by the product description, produced little dust.

I recommend this product. I would have rated this a 5-star but didn't because I think it's... more info
All that's promised, I would say so far:
This blade, made specifically for cutting fiber cement boards/planks, has lived up to my expectations so far. I'm a homeowner, doing my own re-siding of my home with Hardiboard planks, and I'm only about 2/3 the way done. I've had to make a lot of cuts because of multiple sides, windows etc, and have gone thru several 'certified' Hardie approved (4 tooth) blades, i.e Freud, Irwin, but they DID NOT have PCD (polycrystalline diamond) inserts. Those blades, while holding up better than a standard carbide blade... more info
