CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Customer Rating:
Summary: good for the right job
Comment: I gave it 4 stars because it is an O.K. blade. I bought it for cutting 3/4" oak plywood (table saw). I was happy with the results, but not impressed. It worked well with other types of wood. Would I buy again? Only if I had to, due to choices available at that time. Price should be $69.99 for what you get.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not Worth The Additional Cost
Comment: Purchased this blade for a DeWalt 12-inch compound miter saw. Although the blade does a good job on most cuts, I honestly see no difference between this blade and my old Freud blade costing a little over half as much. I definitely would not spend the additional money for this blade again.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Blade
Comment: This blade cuts very smooth with no splintering. I use this on my Delta 12" lazer chop saw for finish work. I had one of these for years and had it resharpened until the teeth could be sharpened no more. I replaced it with a Forest chop saw blade bucause I use Forest on most of my other saws and they work great but the Forest blade would not make the smooth cuts I needed so I went back to this Freud balde. I have been woodworking for over 40 years and in my openion, this is the blade to use for finish work. There are other blades out there that will equal the performance of this blade but not at this price!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Its Good
Comment: Super smooth cuts. But you can't really chop cut with the blade. You have to take a few extra miliseconds than you would with a 60 tooth, but you make that up in sanding and/or gluing time since the cut is now at about a 150-grit finish anyway. It seems to run quieter than the blade I replaced (can't recall the brand or model since its been on so long). And it fits snuggly on my 5/8" arbor, no play. All-in-all I find it an excellent blade for my second most important saw (my table saw has a Woodworker II).

Summary: Freud 12"-96 tooth LU85
Comment: After setting up my new DeWalt sliding miter saw I decided I wanted a better blade for cabinet work, The first blade I bought was the 12-96T Freud Diablo, and after a few cuts I new that this was not the precision I wanted, so after reading the reviews I sent the Diablo back and ordered this blade, The blade runs smooth but the cut edges are torn out on the back side, and when I cut a piece of 5 1/2" base molding at a 45* the back side is splintered about 1/8" deep. I just bought a 10" Forrest WW11 for my table saw and WOW, from now on the Forrest is for me. For those who want to try the Freud good luck (as for me the Forrest chpmaster is my choice)
