I am new to power tools and didn't realize I needed the right blades for the right jobs. Yes I learn the hard way so I purchase this blade since I have been using the wrong one. Boy am I pleased with the quality and performance of this blade. I wish I had purchase this sooner as this is working for me very well. I am not too familiar of brands in general but quality on this is very high. I would buy it again when I need too or even consider buying different sets of blades made by the same manufacture.
