Freud 10 Inch x 30 Tooth Industrial Thin Kerf Glue Line Ripping Saw Blade for Precision Cuts (LM75R010)

J.G.: Works exceptionally well, extremely clean cuts - far better than my previous (very good) general purpose carbide blade. Now I have 2 Freud blades that are highly optimized for crosscuts and rips, respectively, that produce cuts barely requiring any sanding afterwards. Just fabulous!

David Robbins: I’ve never had a very good blade for ripping on my table saw but this one works wonderfull

Amazon customer: There are more expensive and, allegedly, better blades out there. The price difference, however, is astronomical. These Freud blades are a good value. I think they have a great life too. I tend to be lazy and not change blades depending on material. I can saw melamine and hardwoods with these blades and they stay accurate and relatively sharp.

You need to make sure your table saw fence and blade are aligned properly because this thin line blade will leave more saw marks than thicker blades. However, I like the thin blade because it slices through hardwoods faster, with less burning, and it wastes less material. I feel like I get more yield out of my lumber with this blade.

Alan Papka: This blade benefits greatly from a zero clearance insert (though which ones don't).

Super clean edges and with the thin kerf it cuts quickly and easily. Hardwoods just need a little touch-up before joinery.

The two downsides to this blade are the relatively small teeth (you probably won't send this one out for sharpening much) and the red coating likes to come off on your wood. Maybe a little wax would help with the latter.

Rocky Thomas: After some light reading I decided I needed a glue line rip blade. Freud has become my blade of choice for all my tools including router bits. I’ve had nothing but flawless results from both the industrial line and the lower rent Diablo line available at a certain orange big box store and Amazon.
I was making a very critical and visible book match glue up for my mantle, it’s the focal point of my new living room and something I’ll sit and stare at and would lament any flaws or less than perfect bookmatch. No pressure, lol. I considered different methods to make the joint but decided on this blade to do the job.
I set up the blade in my saw with a Forrest damper and took some extra time getting everything set up best as possible before making some test cuts. From the first cut I was impressed versus any of my combination or cheaper rip blades. Mirror smooth and clean as a whistle! This blade is a winner!!!
My friend who’s an accomplished woodworker couldn’t get over how nice the glue line was, perfect isn’t a word I use lightly but this is damn close. As a noobie at fine woodworking and getting questions from someone way more advanced made me feel pretty good...

Don Holmes: My favorite ripping blade for thinner stock. You can glue up cuts no issues, and if exposed, minimal sanding. Over 1 inch thick, you should get a thicker blade, it stays more true through about inch thick stock. it will still rip through, no issues , but it won't be square without tripping through a jointer. The thicker,heavier ripping blade is better for that and freud sells those too. I use their ice series commercial 10 inch blade for thick ripping, works great, but not as smooth of cut.

john gauthier: Great price for a great blade. I recently re-sawed a 5.75 inch wide peice of curly maple, burying this blade nearly 3 inches deep on each pass, with a fantastic finish, no burning, and limited resistance. That's pretty much max abuse you can put on a blade like this and it performed well above expectations. Also, cutting 1 inch thick mahogany does actually produce glue ready joints comparable to a pass on the jointer. After two sharpenings, I will buy this again.

paul turenne: I`ve always been a CMT and Freud blade user ,and was in the market for a new rip blade or similar.

I have a dedicated rip blade (24 tooth Freud) that was going to have to be re-sharpened soon ,and then i read about the glue-line rip in one of my woodworking mags.....sounded interesting.

I already have a Delta jointer ,but thought I would give this blade a try ,so I ordered it.Even if the blade does not perform as expected ,it would still do as a rip only blade ,so what to lose ?

I`m making a bed side table out of Cherry, and a table top and bottom shelf need to be made from 3 glued up boards ,so this would be a good test.

After a few tests on some scrap wood ,to make sure of my feed rates and making sure my tablesaw is all tunes up ,I ripped up spme boards for my glue ups ,and sure enough ,the blade does perform as advertised !!

The edges were smooth ,burn free ,no machine marks and the joints nice and tight.......WOW....not bad !!

I am impressed.

Of course ,feed rates of the stock into the blade must be right (not too fast or too slow) and your machine must be set up properly and everything square.

Of course this blade will...
