Diablo D12100X saw blade

[LCHIEN]

Love my Diablo D12100x 12" 100T ATB blade on my miter saw.
cut on 2x4 below untouched, unsanded raw cut.


I tried a dewalt 100T blade and an Avanti 80T blade, they both had a lot of tearout compared to this.

I believe I posted up about this when I first bought my old Harbor Freight 12" slider and it made the saw almost civilized... It takes the already great Hitachi / Metabo MTB double bevel slider into absolute gold...

Sounds like you found the magic combo for that saw. Those Diablo 100T blades really do punch above their price. Super clean crosscuts without having to baby the cut. I’ve had the same experience with DeWalt and Avanti on softer lumber; they just don’t stay as crisp. When you find a blade that leaves a cut that clean on a raw 2x4, you stick with it!
