That's a fantastic price for a blade that I have used for several years and it's still sharp. I don't need one, but for that little, it's tempting. Is that a sign that I have some disease?
I note they are putting us on a waiting list, but this may not be important as long as it's not needed now.

Name: DaveO City: Clayton State: NC County: Johnston Join Date: Aug 2005 Age: 38 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 7.00 over 180 days | In y'alls opinion what would be a better blade. I have always used a Freud TK combo on my tablesaw. It's 2 HP and I have always thought that a TK blade would be more efficient. But I know that a FK blade is going to run truer. How great are the advantages either way????

Name: Mark City: Goldsboro State: NC County: Wayne Join Date: Mar 2006 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 5.91 over 180 days | DaveO: In my limited experience, I haven't had any problem with the TK blades (Freud) running true except for when I tried to resaw a damp piece the full depth (3 1/2") at one go and my fence wasn't exactly right and my insert didn't have a splitter on it. (That got ugly and the blade warped out over 3/16" before I had enough sense to shut down the saw. Not proud of it but it was a lesson learned.)
The main thing I notice with the thin kerf is about twice the noise (not using a stabilizer) as opposed to a full kerf, and less sawdust.
Go

Name: DaveO City: Clayton State: NC County: Johnston Join Date: Aug 2005 Age: 38 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 7.00 over 180 days | I have not had any problems with my TK not running true, but a thicker plate is bound to be stiffer and thus truer. I just didn't know if I was gaining a significant amount of "power" by using a TK blade in a "under-powered" saw or would it be better to run a FK for the extra stiffness and increased number of sharpening. Probably insignificant differences either way.

Dave  I have the TK WW II and very rarely use it. I might put it in if I was doing some fine crosscutting, but use to get caught out all the time with the restricted DOC. I tried removing the large dampner plate, but when just trimming a small amount off the edge of a board I was getting blade movement. A cut that was well supported on both sides was ok. So I keep the Dewalt GP blade in 90% of the time and it does a good job. The 1 3/4 hp of the dewalt has never proved to be too low even at full cut with the DW blade -just push slower
