I had some Rigid blades. Those were garbage and would bend or get stuck or dull too quickly. I paid the higher price and went back to Milwaukee. These blades cut through nails and 2x4 like they were not even there at least with my Milwaukee electric saw and last about 3x as long as the rigid blades. On drill bits, saw blades, nails, screws and  tools, made  in the USA is still the best. It is worth extra money to say nothing of how much safer the blade is than the Rigid blades. Nothing more unsafe than a dull blade or one that wears out quickly. Amazon gave me a great price and shipping deal. So thanks. Hard to beat Amazon if the local hardware store won't carry made in the usa and quality.
