Thin sintered diamond saw blade

Good blade for a trim saw

I haven't used this particular blade yet as I just got it installed, but I haven't used it yet. But, I've been using these blades on my trim saw for a while now. The last one broke because of something that I did, so I got this one to replace it.

These are great blades to use to cut turquoise. After I purchased these my saw quit so didn’t get to use them but I have in the past

Wears out pretty fast

Virtually all of my work is with agates. These blades only get about 2-3 slices of a 1" by 1.5" rock and then the blade is dull. Then you use the carbide stick to sharpen it - but, the carbide stick is like butter on the blade no matter how slow you push it through. It would be pretty easy to use up an entire carbide stick in one day. I don't 'force' the rock through the blade so as to not put extra wear on the motor, thus it takes a long time to just cut one rock.
