F. Varndell: I bought these a while back and I'm still on the first blade. I run my Dewalt port-band on about setting speed 2 or 3 (about 80-100 FPM) for mild steel and try not to bind the blade and they cut great.

jean-pierre desjardins: Excellente lame . Je fait environ 250 coupes par lame avant de la remplacer. Je coupe de l'acier doux de 1/8'' et 1/4'' . La vitesse de la scie doit être lente. Et de l'huile de coupe allongera la durée de vie de vos lames.
Le truc, c'est une composition de 3 éléments : La pièce métallique que vous coupez doit être bien fixée pour n'avoir aucune vibration lors de la coupe , la vitesse de coupe doit être lente et un alimentation en huile de coupe est nécessaire.

The Honest CritiqueThe Honest Critique: Cuts 2"x3"x1/4" wall tubing fast! The welded seam causes no bumping and tracks true. Stays where you set it. What more can you ask from a blade. Will not cut AR500, use a torch for that.

Rog: I suppose these might do the job for some people, but heres my experience: I had to finish the cut on some 6-4 titanium that was 90% done already, i took off my used, but not broken, dewalt blade and put one of these on, it started cutting like normal, but 30 eeconds later it stopped cutting entirely, i thought i was doing something wrong but after feeling the teeth i knew it was toast. I had one last fresh dewalt blade so i put that on and it finished the cut with ease. I know titanium is tough stuff but its also softer than steel. I doubt i'll be buying more of these unless for some reason it does much much better on steel...
UPDATE!!! I tried them on steel and they require a slow speed if you want them to last. I blew thru 2 blades before trying super slow speed, but when i did try slow, they actually cut fast, so high speed seems to destroy the temper on them, i mean my portable saw isnt crazy fast or anything but apparently its plenty fast enough to overheat the teeth. So at this point they are an option for me in the future because they are cheaper than the dewalt blades, but if someone borrowed my saw theyd likely destroy the blade and possibly overheat the tire if...

Clee22: With the Harbor Freight hand bandsaw and table setup in the shop, it is very easy to cut metal bar, tube and pipe. Blade usually last a while unless an errant piece of metal causes a bind and results in a breakage. Good blades and worth the cost.

Just north of Kenora: At $8 a blade this is impossible to beat... Using on a WEN portaband and perfect fit. If you're new to metal cutting bandsaw blades remember to break-in the blade for longer life... use 1/2 speed and 1/2 the feed rate for the first dozen cuts and it'll last a lot longer.
I'll update if there are issues... good so far.
Update.. 24 hrs after starting a project with these blades... I take back my glowing 5 stars and am reducing my rating to 2... because... despite -wearing in- the blades like I mentioned above I WORE OUT two of the five and a third BROKE at the weld shortly after starting... it took two and a 1/2 blades.. (broke one.). to make 14 cuts through 1 1/2 square tubing.
Are you kidding me...I'm treating these things like they are made of glass.. they have ALL dulled far quicker than the dewalt or makita blades i was using... more money certainly bit only ablout 20-30%...
I quess i now know why.
I'm going to try and return these... they are PRIME after all...
So... punch line... contrary to what o had initially said... $8 a blade does NOT buy a quality blade... ymmv...
Additional edit...
RETURN went perfectly... so theres that!
