Best Miter Saw Blades of 2023

This Makita is a 10-inch blade, which makes it average-sized. Its 80 carbide teeth are honed using 600 grit to provide a very smooth finish that will help it cut through materials with less resistance.

The ultra-thin kerf helps you make smoother cuts with less stress on the motor and less material waste. The teeth are hooked at a 5-degree angle, with an alternative top and face design for precision cutting.

Another advantage of hook teeth is that they scoop the debris and sawdust out as you cut. This reduces the chances of blade gumming, which is one of the leading causes of dangerous kickbacks. Clearing the cutting line also means you will have a better view of what you are doing.

The only downside of this blade is its cost. It is a Bosch, so we wouldn’t expect it to be cheap, but other manufacturers offer packs of multiple blades for similar prices. Even so, this saw blade will slice through hardwood, softwood, and plyboard with ease and is an excellent choice if you are willing to spend some extra money.

This Freud Diablo blade fits 12-inch miter saws, so it is ideal for cutting through thicker pieces of material. It has 100 teeth and an ultra-fine laser-cut kerf that will help make fine, accurate lines in various types of wood.

It is suitable for making accurate cuts at a range of angles and is an ideal blade to use for fine woodworking. Carbide-tipped teeth provide excellent heat resistance and overall durability.

Freud laser-cuts stabilizer vents to prevent sideways movement and decrease vibrations and noise. The surface has a Perma-Shield non-stick coating that ensures the blade glides through the material with minimum resistance, which also protects your miter saw’s motor.

These features add up to a smoother sawing experience while providing greater control and accuracy.

This DeWALT product contains two miter saw blades. One has 60 teeth and is better for crosscutting, while the other is a general-purpose blade with 32 teeth. These blades are for 10-inch miter saws and have carbide-tipped teeth to increase their heat resistance and overall durability.

These blades cost half as much as some models from DeWALT’s competitors, yet they still come from a very reputable brand, so they offer excellent value for money. The 32-tooth blade is very versatile and will tackle the majority of your cutting tasks, whether you are working with wood, composite, plastic, sheet metal, or ply.

These DeWALT blades are computer balanced to reduce vibrations and noise and to improve your accuracy for a better finish. They will also fit sliding miter saws and their thin kerfs will help you make precise cuts every time.

Forrest provides some of the best-quality saw blades on the market and will help you make smooth, accurate cuts. This quality is reflected in its price, which is about as much as some budget miter saw units. It will probably only be a serious option for professionals or passionate hobbyists.

Despite having a 10-inch diameter, this blade slices to a maximum depth of two inches, which means it will cut through 2×4 with ease. The teeth are carbide-tipped, set at an angle of 15 degrees, and should cause far less splintering than inferior blades.

The kerf is thin and wastes very little material while cutting. It leaves a smooth edge without any additional sanding, which could speed up your work significantly.

This Freud blade has 72 teeth with a 5-degree negative hook, which improves the quality of the cut. It also utilizes the alternating top bevel design (ATB), meaning the teeth face left and right. This configuration pushes your workpiece down and toward the fence for improved control and accuracy.

The blade increases the performance of sliding miter saws, but it is also effective in standard saws when you want to perform crosscuts, rip cuts, or bevel cuts. The teeth are carbide-tipped for improved heat resistance and a longer lifespan.

The thin kerf helps you easily cut details with a sliding saw, which also reduces the strain on the saw’s motor. Like other Freud blades, this one is lubricated with a Perma-Shield non-stick surface to help it move through the stock smoothly.

This Diablo blade is made specifically to cut non-ferrous metals and plastics, so it is ideal for working with PVC. The blade is 10 inches in diameter and has 80 carbide-tipped teeth. These teeth are in a triple-chip grind design at a 5-degree angle to provide a clean and burr-free finish.

In addition to pipes, this blade also cuts laminate, aluminum, and brass. This makes it a very versatile option if you are working on-site. It has a thin kerf, so it will leave a smooth cut and place minimal strain on the saw’s motor.

If you are worried about gumming and the increased risk of kickbacks that comes with it, this blade’s Perma-Shield will help. Perma-Shield is a non-stick coating that reduces friction and decreases how hard the motor has to work.

The teeth are carbide-tipped to enable them to withstand extreme heat during the cutting process and to protect the blades against dulling quickly.

This Bosch blade will cut laminate flooring with ease. It has 72 teeth with a negative hook angle to eliminate chipping and extend the blade’s life.

Laminate is notoriously brittle, which is why Bosch has triple-ground the teeth to make them as sharp as possible, cutting the material rather than breaking it.

The teeth are tipped with C4 carbide to enhance their cutting power and longevity. These blades have an anti-friction coating to help them move through the stock smoothly. When combined with a thin kerf, this means a neater cut with less material wasted.

If you don’t need to cut laminate, this blade will also cut melamine, wood, plyboard, and other building materials, making it a versatile option to keep in your toolkit.
