Tenryu GM-25540 10" 40t combo gold medal bl

Notably improved my Saw Stop table saw. Accurate and well made. A quality blade for sure, improvement over the OEM blade that came with the saw.

I well know woodworker tipped me on this one. I'm a long time user of the Forrest WW 11 but occasionally I buy an odd blade just for fun. I send all my blades including this one to Forrest for resharpening. Not the cheapest but they have the best equipment and QC. Take this as a tip where to send your blades. They can take a junker and make it cut like a Forrest. The stock Tenryu I would give a 5 star After sharping by Forrest I would give it a 10 if Amazon had one. When dull I sent it to Forrest. When I got it back put it on the saw and started to rip an oak board. What the ? I turned the saw off after only about 3"-4" thinking I forgot to put the blade on. That was the weirdest cut I ever made. Zero resistance to push the board though and silent . Blade was on and this blade was the the smoothest and best one I have every used including the WW11. We will see if it holds up. I bought a high end Freud once . It also cut super smooth, uh for about 15 cuts and then you had to really lean on pushing it through. What a junker. It also had that teflon stuff which I hate. I trashed that one and even didn't send it to Forrest. I've heard two stories, one is ng carbide, the other an edge that is ground to cut easy but won't hold up.

Was looking for a high quality 10" blade (more teeth) to cut hardwood with my table saw. I was using a Forrest Woodworker II (20 tooth) which is also highly rated but thought I'd try a different supplier recommended by a friend.Dang, like one other reviewer said, this blade cuts hardwood like a "hot knife cuts through butter" leaving an excellent, super clean finish in its wake.I now use the Forrest 20T for general purpose cuts, and the Tenryu 40T for special projects. Would definitely recommend.

Oh my lord! I have never had a saw blade cut hardwood as silently, cleanly, and easily as this blade does. Worth every penny and then some. It literally acts like a hot knife cutting through butter, its that good! I am retired but still active in my wood shop. I had a remodeling business and cabinet shop prior to retirement so I am well acquainted with many saw blade brands, both cheap and expensive. This blade is in a category of its own, and no, I didn't get paid to write this, get a discount, or get it for free.

I made a single cut with this blade and learned that I clearly have never used a good blade until now. I am amazed at how smoothly this blade cut, and how ridiculously smooth the finish is on a fresh cut without sanding. I have to use a magnifying glass or zoom in to a photo to see teeth cut marks, and even then still difficult to see.

Put it through extreme test as soon as I got it was ripping thru 2”+ hickory with ease u can see in the pics house it was on a little thunder hickory

This is probably the best combo blade I have ever used. I have used 10", 12" and 14" versions on different models of cabinet saw (powermatic, delta, tannewitz, sawstop) and sliders (robland, holzher, scmi). It's considerably cheaper than a Forrest WWII and performs better. If kept sharp and clean it will rip better than a designated rip blade and leave a mirror finish on cross cuts in hardwood. Chip and blowout free cuts in baltic birch ply. Love it love it love it!
