    Wood Worker II

    I got my WW2 thin kerf in from Amazon, and made my first test cut with it in 13/16 red oak. It actually sounds different from other blades, and cut like butter. I'm impressed, we'll see how it lasts though.

      Most people find it holds it's edge nicely. I got about 2 years of fairly hard use out of mine before sharpening...YMMV

      I'm guessing you'll really love this blade if you've never used anything else of this caliber.

      Happiness is sort of like wetting your pants....everyone can see it, but only you can feel the warmth.

        Just after I got my BT-3100, I purchased a WW II thin kerf. Then using a piece of 4 x 4, I did a couple of test cuts with each the WW II and the stock Chinese Ryobi. No comparison!! The WW II was hands down the smoother, faster, & cleaner blade. Also did a couple of test cuts on plywood with the same results.
