Used this blade to cut durock for my shower walls. Worked perfectly, clean cuts, still plenty of life left after I was done. Did about 10 full length cuts.

service was good, blade did not cut very well at all. it took a very long time to make any cuts with it. I ended up using another kind of saw to make most of the cuts needed

Used this blade to make detailed cuts in Hardi-board while building a shower enclosure. Seemed to do the job effectively, and did not create as much dust as the blade I used previously with aggressive teeth.

Honestly, this thing will cut through anything. I used it to cut tileboard and some hardiplank but it would also work well for disecting large animals or maybe hateful people. It also fit right into my circa 1968 black and decker jigsaw that i received for Christmas that year. I will admit that the cut accuracy was a little lacking due to the play in the jig saw but it was not the fault of the blade at all. What was most impressive was that after cutting several large pieces the blade was still just as sharp and cutting just as well as the first cut. This is the true sign of high quality and the correct application. I encourage anyone to use this blade for any difficult to cut materials. I really wanted to use a laser or water jet but the lowest price unit that seemed acceptable was around $14,000 and I thought this $9 blade was a better investment after considering the ROI and tax implications. (also when I consulted the supreme commander in charge of domestic relations she pointed out that winter was coming and unless I could sleep inside a laser cutter it was probably not advisable) (she has a way of making her points crystal clear).

Not much available for cutting ceramic tile to fit around a toilet mounting flange. I bought 2 for the bathroom remodel. The first blade burned out very quickly so when using the 2nd blade I had my wife assist and she kept the blade wet while I was cutting and it worked much better.

Drill worked great, did the job with no problem- I felt a little misled, probably my fault due to lack of understanding the deal - the saw was $41 for 1/2 day, not bad - however $41 does not include the blade which I did not understand- Blade is $49, bottom line 1/2 rental $118, my bad never again

First cut was nice and clean, then halfway through my second cut and using same applied pressure, blade shaft snapped at the neck. Having used much less expensive blades in the past with no problem, I was greatly disappointed with the strenght.

Not too shabby
I really expected to get more cuts out of it. Somewhat pricy. Straight from the package it cut my porcelain tile like butter.

      Purchased this blade to make a cut in a piece of porcelain tile. It made a cut of about 1 1/2 inches and the cutting action stopped. It was a waste of money and I would not recommend this product.

      Doesnt like Porcelain tile
      Purchased the T130DG diamond for hard tile jig saw blade this afternoon since I had one 4 1/2" circular cutout to make in a shower enclosure. I have diamond (hole)saw tools for the tub and shower head pipes, and the holes for those pipes were made in 30ish seconds-not a problem. I attempted to make the 4 1/2" shower control cutout with the T130DG, and after 5min on medium speed with minor water cooling I had managed a 1/2" cut. The actual cutting speed had slowed to a virtual stop when I stopped. I
