sounds good.

This blade will no longer be available at lowes since they have discontinued carrying the CMT line for Irwin Marples blades. Get it while you can for that price.

I’m pretty sure Fleet Farm carries these too, so when Lowe’s drops them, check there if you can.

I bought the same blade awhile back… for less than $30. I have the same results as you reported. Very satisfied. I got it because it contains the flat top tooth in the alternating bit sets and I hope it leaves a flatter bottom in dado cuts. I will still use a dedicated Freud rip blade if I am doing a lot of rips… otherwise this blade stays on my Rigid bench top saw.

10-4 on the good blade. I put one on my TS3660. Man what a difference. My Lowes out of them now. I bought a 10, 12 and 7 1/4” blades for all my saws. And the 8” dado set! Hate to see Lowes move away from them. I paid a little more than you for mine but I am still happy.

I’m curious what model this is. CMT has multiple models of a 50T blade with a coating….is this the P10050 from their ITK Plus series? The next step up is their industrial series model 216.050.10 thin kerf, and their 215.050.10 full kerf.

I believe it is the only one they made with a PTFE coating on a 50 tooth. You can see the letters PTFE on the upper left side as it is displayed on the website. Also, the $30.38 price stated on their website is way less than many other CMT blades.
I wish I knew Lowes discontinued carrying it, I’d have bought a couple. we don’t have Fleet Farm here, just Tractor Supply.

Nice surprise at Lowes yesterday. I bought the last two of these off the sales table. Marked down from right at $38 to $22 and change, or 40% off, I did the calculation on my phone in the parking lot. I’ll take two!

I’m going to try to get out to Lowe’s and see if they have any of these in stock. Even though I don’t have a decent table saw I’m willing to put this on yet, I wouldn’t mind letting it sit on the shelf for a while at some. $38 is a stellar price, and $22 is just insane.

-- Tristin King -- When in doubt, sand it.

I was a Lowes the other day to buy some glue. This blade was marked down to 29.95. Since my 12” Bosch miter saw still had the same blade from two years ago when I bought it. Seemed like a ridiculously low price? Or is it just me?

Just a note on the CMT P10050 50 tooth combo. It is a thin kerf blade.

Craftsman, that is the blade. Good snag!

No blades left at any of the Lowe’s around me, but I did score a dado set at a Chattanooga store for $61, down from $89.99. Some are getting them cheaper.
