Superior performance compared to all competitors!

a year ago

This blade made such clean cuts in a furniture building setting I would definitely purchase it when it has outlived its use. I have traditionally used the 60t blade and would regularly have to deal with slight tear out and after about 20-30 cuts the blade would "gum" up and leave burn marks on material. The 80t ultra fine finish blade has surpassed all expectations, I have made close to 75 cuts and have yet to notice any tear out and the coating is superior to other brands I have used to include Diablo and Bosch. Even after the use I put on the blade I have yet to see any heavy build-up. I will definitely continue to use this blade until it has run through its usefulness and will, without a doubt, purchase again

Yes, I recommend this product.

Solid blade as always

4 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I generally don't have any issues with milwaulkee tools and this blade is no different. I tried it out on my miter saw as well as my circular saw and chopped through 2x4s and 2x6s with ease. I cut through 3/4" and 15/16" plywood nice and buttery as well. For anyone that may not be aware, this is a framing blade. There's only 24 teeth on this blade and you're not going to get pretty and clean cuts. This is just to chop up wood for framing purposes. The more teeth on the blade will make finer the cuts. And this blade will not do that. Just keep that in mind.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Durable and Precise

8 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried a Milwaukee 12" 80T Fine Finish Circular Saw Blade, and I couldn't be more impressed. This blade delivers an incredibly smooth and precise cut every time. Whether I'm working with hardwood, plywood or even laminate, the results are consistent with minimal splintering. Durability on this particular blade is outstanding. I have used it on several jobs and it still preforms like new. The teeth seem to remain sharp and there is not much of a sign of wear and tear. Vibration is minimal allowing for better control on cuts. Worth every penny.

Yes, I recommend this product.

DIY review

2 years ago

Bought this for building a patio deck, since I got a ridiculous quote for the job, I figured I'd tackle the job. Not bashing the contractor I understand time is money, and this blade is money. I'm building a 12'x10' floating deck platform and this thing cuts through wood like butter. In my limited capacity as a DIY I can't say this is the end all be all blade, but for my application it works perfectly. I hope this is helpful for the DIY, the contractors and other trades men sorry I can't help with giving a durability review, or a performance comparison. For the average Joe who wants something sturdy, and works great this is a must buy. Again I don't build houses or use this for a job so I cant speak on durability or a comparison sorry.

Yes, I recommend this product.

a year ago

Very smooth blade. I put it on my table saw, and so far it's doing great. Normally, I buy Diablo brand blades, and this Milwaukee blade is comparable if not better. We'll see about longevity, but it looks very well made and balanced, cuts like a hot knife through butter and leaves a beautiful smooth cut edge on the trims I ripped with it. Now trims being finish pieces, straightness and smoothness are very important to reduce or eliminate the need for sanding, so it's serving me well so far. Overall a great blade, so don't hesitate to buy it.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Impressive Performance, Zero Warping

a year ago

I recently replaced my Diablo blade with the Milwaukee 6-inch saw blade while working on a front porch project, and I must say, I'm extremely pleased with its performance. This saw blade is of exceptionally high quality. One of the standout features of this blade was its resistance to warping. Throughout my project, I observed absolutely zero warping, which is consistent with Milwuakees tools' reputation for durability and reliability. This not only saved me time but also ensured that my cuts were precise and accurate. Overall the saw blade exceeded my expectations. It's a high-quality tool that delivers outstanding performance and durability. If you're looking for a reliable saw blade for your projects, I highly recommend giving this one a try.

Yes, I recommend this product.

This is a long-term review of the Milwaukee 12" 80-Tooth saw blade. I put through its paces on several jobs. This is a solid choice for anyone looking to make clean, precise cut. The blade design minimizes tear-out, leaving smooth edges on materials like plywood, hardwoods, and softwoods perfect for projects where appearance matters. While it’s pricier than some competitors, the durability and quality make it worth it for serious DIYers or pros. Overall, it’s a reliable, high-performing blade that delivers on its promises.

Not just another blade

6 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I chose the Milwaukee Circular Saw Framing Blade 6-1/2" 24T, I really didn't expect to see much of a difference from other quality saw blades I've been using. I was pleasantly surprised! These blades have a noticeable improved performance. I was doing rough cuts for 7 hours straight without diminished performance. The blade didn't over heat, stick to material or dull. Kudos to Milwaukee for placing as much importance on the quality of another (random) consumable as they do on their tools. It sure makes my jobs easier.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I am 100% satisfied with the performance of this b

a year ago

This review is based off of my free trial with milwaukee's 12" 80T Fine Finish Circular Saw Blade. I've used this blade for almost 3 weeks now. So far I've used this blade to install EVP flooring in a bathroom remodel, all the trim work that consisted of hardwood, pine,PVC, and mdf woods and composites. This blade has not shown any wear at all so far. Just cutting the vinyl planking alone says alot, and and then still be razor sharp to cut nice smooth miters through the hardwood and pvc trim with no problem at all!

Cuts Thin, Fast, and Clean. My new blade.

2 years ago

Found my new blade! This thing stays sharp, rips like crazy and gives you miter-like results. I've use it on interrior cabinet shelving, exterior sheeting, and building interrior walls. Cuts are thin and clean and the blade leaves very little if any crosscut splintering; easy to control and the blade doesn't meander. I've been using it on two jobs and for 6 weeks now, and I've since swapped out the blades on my other 2 worm drives with waukees! It keeps up and leaves my other blades in its sawdust.

Yes, I recommend this product.

My new favorite blade

8 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Would highly recommend this blade. Received it just in time to trim out a 3400sq ft house with casing base molding and crown. All different material types including FJP MDF and solid maple for kitchen cabinet trim. Blade cut smooth and very clean cuts Didn’t have a problem with hard maple and that was after using the blade on the mdf crown. We all know that it usually builds up on the blade after cutting that but no issues. Glad to have received it and think I found my new blade of choice.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Reliable Performance for DIY Projects

6 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although I don't use my miter saw frequently enough to compare this blade with other brands, the Milwaukee 2" 80T Fine Finish Circular Saw Blade has exceeded my expectations. It's perfect for my DIY projects, delivering clean, precise cuts every time. Whether working with hardwood, softwood, or plywood, this blade handles them all with ease, making it a reliable choice for anyone looking for quality and performance in their cutting tools. Highly recommended for DIYers and professionals alike.

The best blade in the industry!

2 years ago

I have been framing for a solid two years and the Milwaukee blades hold up as the best blade because of its durability! Much better than Dewalt and the diablo blades and it’s worth the money because it’s able to withstand a lot more abuse from cutting metal as well! Never will I switch to another blade other than this one. Their Reciprocating saws are also the best demo blades too and I recommend anyone trying them as someone who has used diablo and Dewalt blades for renovating jobs and demo!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Nice blade

4 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this blade mostly as a spare for smaller projects so I didn't have to keep using my Diablo blade. I used this with my SKIL 5280-01 15-Amp 7-1/4-Inch Circular Saw. The fit was perfect. When cutting it leaves a little bit of fraying. Nothing crazy you can't sand down but still a tad more than I would have liked. A little less fraying and would have gotten 5 stars. I was able to cut super thin pieces with no issues as a test. Time will tell how this stands up to my Diablo blade.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Nice clean cuts and fast!

a year ago

This is a great saw blade! I’ve been using the blade for over a week now and I have zero complaints and I’m completely happy with its ability to make fast clean cuts. This blade leaves the edge clean but the speed that it cuts through wood reminds me of a framing blade (24 tooth). The blade seems well balanced and from what I can tell (so far) it appears to have great durability. I typically would reach for the all red brand blades but this Milwaukee blade has me reconsidering!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Top notch saw blade

7 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing blade so far, I switched it out when I started redoing my deck. I know it's not generally designed for composite as opposed to wood but that just goes to show it's versatility and quality my cuts have been Lazer sharp even after all of my deck boards and railings the teeth nor blade have gotten caked up with residue. It's also still as sharp as the day I put it on and I've done alottttt of cutting so far so I'm super happy with it's performance and durability to date.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Eats wood

4 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We're framing a new house and I gave this blade to my framer for him to test out. Near the end of the project I noticed that of the 3 circular saws on the jobsite, the guys were strongly favoring the one that had this blade. Now that the project is mostly wrapped and the amount of work has dropped the only circular saw being used is this one. All of the blades were new when we started, and I don't think they will swap this one out when they start the next house.

Yes, I recommend this product.

First initial feedback

a year ago

After receiving this blade, I used it to cut 2x4 studs and some 3/4 plywood. Rip cuts, cross cuts, all clean and neat. I noticed a material used on the vibration cut outs of the blade, that seemed to stabilize the blade during operation better than blades that do not have that coating. It’s too early to give feedback on the life expectancy of the blade at this time, but initial use, it works great. It definitely has quality built in to it.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Very smooth blade

a year ago

Very smooth blade. I pout it in my jobsite table saw and it's doing really good. I normally buy Diablo brand blades, and this Milwaukee blade was comparable or better. I rip a lot of trims and such, so a smooth cut edge is probably what's most important to me, and that's exactly what this blade delivers. We'll see about longevity, but so far it's holding up as expected. If you can get your hands on one, try it. You won't be disappointed.

Milwaukee smokes the competition again!

2 years ago

This thin kerf blade cuts through wood like butter. I used my m18 rear handle circular saw with my guide to cut 1½" thick oak butcher block countertop. Cut cleanly without heating up and warping. Splintering was non-existent. This was just a framing blade. I can't wait to try out a finish blade! Very impressed with this blade. Better than the competition! Great job Milwaukee! I look forward to these blades hitting our local lumber yards!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Pleasantly Surprised!

a year ago

Well I am pleasantly surprised. I usually don't expect much from tool manufacturers blades but this 80 tooth 12 inch circular saw blade has changed my mind. The finished cuts it leaves are extremely clean. coupled with a zero clearance insert on my miter saw. I received this blade to evaluate so I don't know what it retails for but if it is competitively priced I may equip the rest of my miter saws with Milwaukee blades going forward.

Yes, I recommend this product.

High quality blade

a year ago

I’ve used the blade for several cuts after receiving it. The cut is excellent. It cuts quickly and provides a very fine finish needing very little attention to create a seamless joint. I’ve used Diablo blades in the past and the Milwaukee blade has exceeded the quality of cut so far. I have not owned the blade long enough to assess its durability. Additionally, I have only cut hardwoods. I do not cut pine with my finishing blades.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Definitely a workhorse

8 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried out this blade and so far it’s been impressive it cuts very well and it performs great cutting exotic hardwoods such as ipe, cumaru, sapele and Honduran mahogany. The cuts aren’t as mirror smooth as other blades I’ve tried but they are clean and smooth and the slight roughness allows glue to seep into the wood better than a mirror polish cut. Even after 500 cuts it still cuts clean and smooth and has very little vibration

Yes, I recommend this product.

Better than I expected

a year ago

I am a strong believer in using quality blades for my table saw. I’ve always used expensive high end blades like Forest brand. I was a little skeptical at Milwaukees attempt to make a durable high end table saw blade but I must say…I am impressed. I’ve used it to rip various size plywood panels and it’s holding up better than expected. Might be worth the try for those who are looking for a cheaper version of a reliable blade.

Good quality blade for hardwood

8 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the Milwaukee 10" Ultra Fine 80 Tooth wood blade on my table saw for a window trim job I had recently. The blade cut the Oak sills well. The trim I used was MDF primed and I had to adjust the thickness on a few pieces. The blade did not perform as well on this as it did on the Oak. There is probably a better blade design that wood work for the MDF trim better and not an issue with quality of this product.

I’m sold on Milwaukee blades from now on!!!

a year ago

I have used this blade to cut poplar, walnut, mahogany and pine and I can honestly say this is blade is fantastically versatile! I love that it stayed cool and clean even with wet pine! Blade cuts absolutely clean edges any wood every time. Try if you want but you won’t find a blade that performs any better. You might find one that costs a lot more but I bet this Milwaukee blade matches or exceeds anything you find.

Top notch blade

8 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a remodeler for home construction. I used the Milwaukee 80 tooth fine finish 12inch miter saw blades to do all the trim in my last remodel. I run them on a Milwaukee cordless 12inch miter saw. They seem to last for a long time and cut real great. The coating held up real great also. The only draw back is it is a little on the heavy side but my saw had no problems running it and it is just a very quality blade.

Nice mid range saw blade

8 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used on my miter saw. Mix of trim work and woodworking uses. Really happy with this saw blade - low vibration compared to my other similarly priced blade and results in a really nice finish. Lifespan is just a little shorter than I’d like, but hard to improve upon that unless you go up to the next level of blades - something like the Freud industrial line, but for something easily available in store this is great.

Yes, I recommend this product.
