That was what I hope to accomplish. They still lose teeth going the right direction - so the jury is still out. So glad you have made up your mind - I'm not sure yet. I have a Harbor Freight version now so be on the look out for more testing.

@@AndrewBrenner1 it also appears you're attempting to make pretty long cuts through thick gauge metal. Have you tried using any lubricant on your cutting surface to minimize friction and heat build up? WD-40 or Used motor oil work well in a pinch.

@@jschlaud6 I'm not sure if it would be helpful or how to apply it while cutting. There really isn't a bunch of excess heat with these Cermet blades so I don't think friction is a major issue... although PINCHING seems to be VERY BAD. I don't know if lubricant will help that but I'm open to suggestions.

I didn't think it was different from the last one. It was only after cutting for a while that I realized they had different markings.

I guess I need someone to keep an eye on me. There is no arrow on the blade that I can see.

I made too many assumptions.
