Product: CR-1 Leecraft Zero-Clearance Insert

Rating: 5 of 5 stars

I received the order today. I installed and adjusted the two saw inserts as directed. They were a breeze to cut and look awesome. Thank you for your prompt delivery and quality work. Unfortunately I didn't hear about this product until I had already ordered a similar item from Peachtree.com. I ordered them back on the 6th of this month and they arrived the same day as yours. Clearly no comparison in the craftsmanship. I will be placing the other brand on the shelf or maybe give them to the kids to play with.
Thanks again

I would just like to say that you have the best saw blade that I have ever used. I've been trying different blades recommended by friends, but I have to go back to the WWII. Even when it's not at its sharpest, it still cuts better than others. Thanks for making such a great blade.

Received my saw blade on 01 Mar 2013. I have been using my Inca table saw for over 30 years and it has never run so quiet. When I first started the saw, with the Forest blade in it, I thought something was wrong because I could actually hear the motor running. Thanks, Bryan

Installed this zero clearance insert on my Bosch 4100-09 on 3/9/13. The quality, fit and finish are excellent, as are the installation instructions. I actually spent more time trying to get the insert 'level and stable' in my Bosch table than setting up and cutting the insert. I don't know if my table insert opening is not quite 'level' all the way around but that could be the case as the Leecraft insert is certainly level. I installed a new Freud LU87R010 to go with the new insert.

Product: Chopmaster 12", 80 and sharpening

Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Just purchased a 12" 80 tooth chopmaster for my sliding miter saw. Outstanding, the only blade I've ever had on a miter saw that is so sharp and accurate. Also just had 3, 10" blades (not Forrest) shapened for my table saw. Better than new! I do segmented wood turning and clean, accurate cuts are a must. Outstanding products and service.

I just recieved my CR-4 Leecraft Zero Clearance insert. I fit great and I was glad it was 1/2/ inch thick. I was scared it was only going to be 1/8 like the opening. I am very pleased. I had a hard time finding one that was the right size. It is a great product. I will probably purchase more for my dado blades. Thank you again.

Janet, my order arrived yesterday. Haven't tried the blades, however I am confident they will perform as expected. Beyond that I want to thank you for making certain the products ordered were suited for my specific applications. Your knowledge, expertise and professional demeanor will keep me coming back. Forrest is fortunate to have you as their point of consumer contact.

Product: Chopmaster 10" 80 tooth

Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Let me start by saying that I had a good bit of trouble trying to get my Sears Craftsman radial over arm saw to make an acceptable cut. After trying several different blades, the saga is over. The Chopmaster Blade proved to be an answer to my prayers. It came professionally packaged and after I mounted it to my saw, it proved to be above and beyond what I expected. I cross cut six different species of wood and did not try to give me bottom splinter. This is the last brand I will try as it exceeded my expectations. I cannot wait till my table saw blade needs replacement.

Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Grandfather always said you get what you pay for. The trick is to know how much is the name costing. With having a old 925H Dewalt radial arm saw I have to be sure of the quality in areas like balance, pitch (rack) and quality of cut. I am pleasantly surprised with the wood worker1. The characteristics in cutting different types of woods are superb even better than original blades which it came with.

Rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have been running a ten inch #1 grind blade on my Unisaw for the past year and have made thousands of cuts in making boxes. It is finally dull, but has outlasted the Freud blades by three or four times.
The Chopmaster on my Mekita saw is ideal for veneer and I can even cut single sheets with no splinters.
I am completely sold on your blades. They are worth every penny. Keep up the good work.

In Nov 09 I bought the 12" Chopmaster...what a great blade. I just bought the WWII for my table saw. Over the weekend I ripped 6000 LF of 1x & 2x Western Red Cedar. The last LF was ripped as clean as the first LF. My only regret was not getting this blade sooner.

Product: New purchase

Rating: 5 of 5 stars

I wrote a review Jan 30th after I ordered two blades, 10" X 40 tooth WOODWORKER II and a 10" 80 tooth CHOPMASTER and they were delivered yesterday Feb 2nd. They were packed securely and serialized as my previous purchases. I spent last evening testing them out after mounting them in each dedicated saw. Cross cut ,rip cut and bi-cut. No whine, no chips, no marks. As claimed by Forrest, these cut straight, smoother than a jointed edge and held many tested angles repeatedly. Just as with my first 2 purchases a year ago I am not disappointed only VERY SATISFIED. Worth every cent. Consider Forrest before you even think of going to the home center or woodworking specialty store for any other brand.

Product: 10" Duraline & 6" Dado King

Rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have been making custom red oak kitchen cabinets from scratch for our home and after many moments that my professional 10" Delta finish blade and 6" dado blades splintered or chipped a crucial set-up or piece I bit the bullet and purchased a 10" Duraline plywood blade and a 6" Dado King set for the oak plywood. They are everything Forrest claims. Smooth, clean and splinter free. Believe me, I cleaned and checked alignments many times before I purchased these from Forrest. I never looked back and today I just ordered two more blades, 10" X 40 tooth WOODWORKER II and a 10" 80 tooth CHOPMASTER before I begin the 24 doors. I am convinced I will not want to use another mfg. blade again. I wish you made heavy duty router bit. You will get the sharpening business for my current 1/2" bits. My local sharpener disappointed me again. Thank you, Jim Jones

I will be sending in my current Woodworker II for resharpening using this blade's packaging. It has been a great blade - I have used it for many years and too many projects to count. Your blade was not the lowest price initially, but the quality and durability have made it a great deal over time. Best investment I've made in my shop. 9 years after my first Forrest purchase, I now have two Woodworker II's and your dado set. Sincerely, Kendall

I purchased my first Woodworker II blade just over a year ago. I am placing it in a box today to return it for sharpening for the first time! I have used this blade a lot during this year and its still cutting better than any other blade I have purchased anywhere! Just wanted to let you know that I am extremely pleased with the product and bought my second blade last week so I won't have to wait for one to be returned from your shop to continue working.

Hello...since I'm one of the country's "downsized" people right now...I've been working on a custom dresser for my wife. I am just about to begin doing the drawer fronts with miters...and I hadn't yet used the 10" 40T Woodworker II blade I bought at the 2007 Milwaukee woodworking show....WOW!!! I am amazed!!!! I could tell the minute the blade touched the wood there was a difference...MUCH quieter!!! And the resulting cut's surface....JUST LIKE A BABY's BEHIND!!! SMOOOOOTH!! Thanks for having a product that does live up to its hype!!!

Gentlemen - I know that you know it already, but you guys are good! You were very
responsive to my order (it shipped the same afternoon that I ordered the dado set), and it arrived exactly when you said it would (yesterday). Not only that, but the dado set came in a very substantial case, and all of the carbide teeth were protected with a vinyl material. Nice work.

In this day when there is so much slick merchandising and over-eagerness to just get the sale and not follow up with good product and delivery, I very much appreciated your professionalism. You are a level above most of the rest. I will be back to buy more equipment from you.

Many thanks,

Hello--
You guys probably get kudos all of the time. I'm a beginner woodworker with a limited shop and budget. However, I sprung for a woodworker 2 with a standard kerf because you advertised that the edges would be good enough to glue without additional steps.
This is my first project. A few passes through the table saw, and sure enough the pieces for the tabletop were good enough to glue. Crosscuts are very clean. All of my joints are tight. I did experiment with a router pattern bit and a straight edge and in my view your saw blade yielded a superior result.
But you probably knew all of that.
Thanks

14" Woodworker II 40 tooth and custom 20 tooth woodwrker blades. These blades have performed flawlessly even after 5 months of production cutting in my shop. The 20 tooth custom blade has cut approx. 10,000 lineal feet of 12 quarter poplar half @ 45 degrees. The 40 tooth blade has cut more than a truck load of 3/4" cdx plywood. The longevity of these blades is un-matched.

Rating: 5 of 5 stars

The surface planer blade for our acrylics is just one more Forrest blade we have come to rely on when top-notch quality is expected. It works like a dream. What a difference and what a pleasure to use!!
We also use the Woodworker ll. the Dado-King, and the Duraline HI A/T 1/8" and have recently moved to the A/T 3/32" thin-kerf for our melamine panels.
After we tried a local company to sharpen one of our A/T's, we now use Forrest exclusively for sharpening. Why mess with perfection? Forrest gets it right every time.

I just purchased the woodwoker II blade with 40 teeth. All I can say is that I will only buy Forrest blades only because they are superior quality!

Thank you for making such a outstanding blade. I hope to buy much more!
