Framing= Diablos or Bosches (which is probably the above blade painted differently) Had some bad luck with Irwin (lost teeth), may have to reconsider, as may have just been a bad one. Associates seem to like them. Tenryu and Forrest are also used. Tenryu make some nice blades for cordless. http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&productId=100390082&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&PID=603315&cm_mmc=CJ-_-pricegrabber-_-D25X-_-100390082&cpncode=12-43824573-2&URL=http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/BuildLinkToHomeDepot?linktype=product&id=100390082&cm_mmc=CJ-_-pricegrabber-_-D25X-_-100390082&AID=10368321&cj=true&srccode=cii_5784816 I’ve been using a mix of blades, depending on use.

Considering the low cost of the Irwins - we toss them at the first sign of bad performance.

All the money Skil is saving by offshoring production of the 77, least they can do is throw in a carbide blade.
