Yup that's a good deal. The same brand name blades they have also look reasonably priced but I have no idea of their quality.

I picked up one of these…… wow…. Well built, well packaged and cuts sweeeeeet! I’m officially retiring my abrasive saw. Never again.

Dry cut's are just in an entirely different league :)

Just be careful on use, need slow steady pressure so you don't break teeth. And don't try to cut rusty or hardened materials with it...I still use the abrasive saw for things like rebar or if I had to cut stainless or tool steel or something I'd use abrasive (haven't had to yet).

I've got a dry cut saw also but keep the old abrasive saw for thin material which it is much better on

I've been using fine tooth carbide blades on aluminum since the early 80's. First on a Craftsman 10" radial arm saw, and currently on a Dewalt 10" compound miter saw. Just clamp down the material, or hold it very firmly. And go slow!

But don't try this on steel! Thin aluminum only, up to about 1/4" maximum.

I’ve never had a problem with mine although it does blow chunks out the back (cuttings )
so it is a good idea to build a trap for it.
I see they even take payments starting at $66.
