The CMT ITK Contractor Fine Finish Saw Blade is an 80-tooth circular saw blade engineered for ultra-clean crosscuts in soft and hard wood, plywood, and laminate. Designed for demanding finish carpentry and trim work, this 10-inch blade pairs an Alternate Top Bevel tooth grind with a precisely controlled hook angle to produce glass-smooth results on radial arm saws, miter saws, and table saws. Whether you are tackling fine millwork or shop-grade cabinetry cuts, the ATB geometry and high tooth count work together to minimize tearout and deliver professional-quality edges on every pass.

Key Features

• 80-Tooth ATB Grind at 10 deg. - the Alternate Top Bevel configuration with a 10 deg. sharpening angle shears wood fibers cleanly on both sides of the cut, reducing tearout in plywood faces and laminate surfaces.
• 15 deg. Hook Angle - a positive hook angle feeds material smoothly into the cut while maintaining control, making crosscutting on miter saws and radial arm saws more stable and predictable.
• 0.094 in. Kerf Thickness - a full-kerf tooth thickness provides rigid, stable cutting geometry that helps keep the blade tracking straight through dense hardwoods and thick sheet goods.
• 0.071 in. Plate Thickness - the slender plate body reduces material waste per cut and keeps the blade light without sacrificing the stiffness needed for accurate finish crosscuts.
• HW Carbide Tooth Material - hard metal carbide tips hold a sharp edge through extended use across soft wood, hard wood, plywood, and laminate, reducing how often the blade needs resharpening.
• 5/8 in. Bore Diameter - the standard 5/8 in. arbor bore fits the most common table saw, miter saw, and radial arm saw spindles, making installation and blade changes straightforward.
• 7,600 RPM Rating - the blade is rated to 7,600 RPM, giving it the headroom to run safely at the full operating speed of most stationary and portable saws used in contractor and shop environments.

Why This Product

• With 80 ATB teeth working at a 10 deg. bevel angle, this blade is purpose-built for fine finishing crosscuts - exactly the application where a general-purpose blade leaves behind rough edges that require sanding or re-cutting.
• Compatibility with radial arm saws, miter saws, and table saws means a single blade can serve multiple machines in a contractor's shop or job site setup, reducing the need to stock separate finish blades for each tool.
• The combination of hard metal carbide tips and precise sharpening is designed to maintain consistent cut quality through demanding materials like plywood and laminate, where dull or imprecise teeth cause visible delamination and chipping.
• A 7,600 RPM maximum speed rating provides a meaningful safety margin above the operating speeds of most common saw platforms, supporting reliable performance without exceeding the blade's structural limits.
