This is an outstanding blade for the cordless Makita XPS01Z (and corded SP6000J) track saw, but there is a small catch. You will need to replace the existing 20mm inner flange with a 5/8" inner flange (Makita 224411-7) used on many other other Makita LXT circular saws such as the Makita XSH03Z (all compatible models are too numerous to list here). This part is available here at Amazon and from many online power tool parts sellers, and for around $12 including shipping, you can purchase an inner flange as well as a spare outer flange (Makita 224409-4) and M6 socket head screw (Makita 266403-0); refer to the attached photo for more information on these Makita parts. Of course, this blade will work just fine with any 6-1/2" circular saw having a 5/8" arbor, regardless of manufacturer.With the exception of existing and new Makita track saw blades recently introduced, and the DeWalt DW5258, this is the only fine-finish saw blade (48-teeth and higher) available with a 165mm diameter, at a price point that puts all the others to shame. (And yes, the DeWalt and high-end Makita blades are made in China. Note that premium 40-tooth crosscut blades, similar to the Freud Diablo D0641X, Makita T-01410 and others, with a 165mm diameter and 5/8" arbor, are excluded here.) Other competing fine-finish 6-1/2" blades (20mm arbor) on the market are 160mm diameter, including the Festool 495377, Freud LU79R006M20 and Oshlun SBFT-160048. The 165mm size is important for Makita track saws, since this diameter is necessary for the 3mm scoring feature enabled via a dedicated depth stop, to eliminate splintering or chipping on the top surface. (Festool saws utilize an auxiliary splinter guard attachment mounted at the outboard side of the blade to accomplish the same thing.) It is possible to make an acceptable scoring cut with a 160mm diameter blade (in this case a Freud LU79R006M20) by applying slight downward pressure during the cut; using your right hand on top of the blade guard assembly pushing down, while pushing the saw forward with your left hand works best to achieve consistent results.This ATB blade has a measured kerf of 1.95mm (0.077" or about 5/64") with a saw plate thickness of 1.62mm (0.064" or about 1/16"). Out of the easy-to-open packaging, it is very sharp, runs straight and true, and operates smoothly without vibration. Regarding cut quality, perhaps the ultimate test for a fine-finish saw blade is cutting melamine without chipping the top surface, and here the Concord blade passes with flying colors after a quick scoring pass. Even without scoring, the chipping is minimal, being about the same as the Freud LU79R006M20. The Concord does require slightly more pushing effort than the Freud blade when cutting 3/4" Melamine, most likely attributed to it's higher number of teeth (60 vs. 48) and the fact that it is not coated like the Freud; the kerf and saw plate thickness for both blades are nearly identical. Although no test cuts were made on hardwoods or softwoods, this blade should produce comparable splinter-free cuts (although there are better 6-1/2" blades out there specifically made for ripping cuts).While it may not have the nice Teflon coating and refinement of the excellent 6-1/2" Freud LU79R006M20, you can purchase 4 of these for the price of 1 Freud, yet still have money left over. The same can be said for the other premium Makita track saw blades recently introduced; we are talking about 6-1/2" saw blades that cost anywhere from $45 - $60... or even more, provided that you manage to find them online. So, let's put this pricing in perspective... for around $60 or so, you can buy this blade and a top notch 10" Freud Diablo 90-tooth or even 100-tooth blade for your table saw. Sounds like an easy decision.Please see the attached photos for additional information and commentary, saw blade comparisons and cutting quality test results.
