DeWalt DW7352
Score: 88/100Rankings

The Freud LU87R010 is a thin-kerf ripping blade designed to give new life to underpowered table saws by reducing power draw and increasing cutting efficiency. Its Perma-Shield coating and aggressive hook angle are key strengths, though the flat-top grind limits its versatility for crosscuts. It is best suited for hobbyists and professionals with low-HP saws needing fast, clean rips.

The DeWalt DW7352-2 is a set of reversible, disposable planer knives made from M2 laminated high-speed steel, designed for the DeWalt DW735 thickness planer. The double-edged design doubles cutting life, while the vacuum heat treatment ensures superior sharpness retention. It is best suited for professional woodworkers who prioritize quick swaps over manual sharpening.
