@ Ryan – Sorry to hear about your problems. We only tested the Final Cut blades that had the sanding disc on them. I think the difference in kerf is the issue.

I bought these sanding discs at a woodworking show. The salesman assured me that it would work “excellent” with my Freud Premier Fusion blade. He told me that the preferred blade was the “final cut”, but that the discs would work just as well with my Fusion blade. Talk about a disaster. My saw is perfectly tuned and somehow I managed to get burning and smoke like nothing else. I wrote the company TWICE and never received a reply.

@ Fred – I had a similar experience with the first blade. They sent me a new one and it worked very well.

Final Cut Saw Blade: I ordered the 10″ Final Cut saw blade and used it for about a week when I noticed that the sandpaper started to come of at couple of places on the rim of the sandpaper, and the area where “Final Cut” is stenciled in the sandpaper was loosing its bond to the blade. I decided to return the blade for a refund, which I promply received. I don’t know if this was an isolated problem, but I lost confidence in the product.

The discs do not work with all blades!

I have the 10″ blade from final cut and would not give it up for anything!

My blade came with 2 extra discs and I put them on a good blade and it burned the edge of the disc after about 8 or 10 feet of cherry.

The blade that I purchased is working great!

I just tried the “Final Cut ” on my table saw. I put disks on both side of the blade. the first twenty or so cuts where just like glass. When I ran some Black Locust through, the inside (Between the Blade and the Fence) started to burn by the time I ran three feet through. By the third cut the smoke started pouring out. the disk was shot. I thought maybe the spring of the wood between the fence and the blade caused the problem. I removed the inside disk and made some additional cuts with the outside disk only. this time I tried some 1 1/2 Alder by the time I made the will work on a cutoff sawI am doing wrong and I don’t know how the disks will work on a cutoff saw but I am a long way from the four thousand cuts I say at the trade show. Also the guy at the show said nothing about a .070 plate and a .104 kerf.
