This blade was the perfect thing for my needs. I needed to cut 5 slate tiles for a small remodeling project, and one blade worked perfectly. I kept it watered to keep it cool, and I don’t think I would use it for large jobs, but it’s perfect for small jobs in a pinch.

I cut 12 fiber siding planks with this blade. Not just straight cuts but angle cuts and around windows and vents. Then when I was finish I cut a 3/4 inch granite back splash. After all that it still looks good. Definatley worth the $10

I researched this blade for a bit before purchasing. I thought I would try to method someone else posted, filling a bucket to top top with water, lay the tile on top of it letting the blade dip in the water constantly while cutting. Take your time, it will take a while, don’t use heavy force to do the cut, it worked out perfectly for me. If I had to guess, all my cuts totaled up, I made around 3′-4′ worth and the blade is not worn.

Cuts Hardie siding cleanly and with relative ease. Very happy to have this kind of success with such a difficult material to cut.

I used this blade for cutting out electrical and plumbing openings in hardibacker siding panels. Drill two holes big enough for the blade, squirt some water on the surface, then cut away. Smooth clean cuts. Blade is a little pricey though.

The blade performed as expected…

Needed to cut a 7″ round hole in a 12″ tile for a toilet flange opening. Each blade cut about 1/2 the needed hole – about 19″ before wearing enough that it would cut. I used a squirt bottle to keep the blade wet and the cut was smooth and steady. So I bought two blades to get the perfect round cut for a very nice finished look. Worth getting if you want to do the job right.

Used it to cut granite tile counter top to make room for a new kitchen range that is slightly wider than the original. Cut a straight line for about 28 inches. Through granite, hardie board, and ply board. It cut fine, my wife used a spray bottle of water to keep the blade cool and lubricated as I handled the jig saw. Worked and will still cut. However, the blade was about 1/4 inch too short for a clean cut of the counter mount board on the bottom side. It will not be visible with the range in place but I will clean it up.

Does a nice job cutting through wall plaster.

I needed to cut two roof tiles … and didn’t want to buy a wet saw or angle grinder. These worked although it takes about 5 minutes per tile

My Makita jigsaw is pretty old so maybe that affects saw blade?

Honestly, this thing will cut through anything. I used it to cut tileboard and some hardiplank but it would also work well for disecting large animals or maybe hateful people. It also fit right into my circa 1968 black and decker jigsaw that i received for Christmas that year. I will admit that the cut accuracy was a little lacking due to the play in the jig saw but it was not the fault of the blade at all. What was most impressive was that after cutting several large pieces the blade was still just as sharp and cutting just as well as the first cut. This is the true sign of high quality and the correct application. I encourage anyone to use this blade for any difficult to cut materials. I really wanted to use a laser or water jet but the lowest price unit that seemed acceptable was around $14,000 and I thought this $9 blade was a better investment after considering the ROI and tax implications. (also when I consulted the supreme commander in charge of domestic relations she pointed out that winter was coming and unless I could sleep inside a laser cutter it was probably not advisable) (she has a way of making her points crystal clear).

Had to make sure to keep putting water on it to keep it cool and seemed to get hot quick and wanted to bend easy

Great product. I had a small project with hardi board and this blade did the job.

I used the blade to cut porcelain tile. It worked great! The secret is to use water to cool the blade or the heat will eat away the grit fairly quickly. Also a lower speed jig saw works better.

I’ve cut Hardi Backer-board, ceramic tile, and slate with this blade. It provides a nice cut and is very long lasting.

Great

I use these things for hardieboard and they make work so much more easy. Curved cuts or trimming in place are much better. Gives a nice clean edge unlike shears.
