I must admit that I've never used a dedicated crosscut blade for table saws, including my Hammer before.
I have been using combinations or rip blades, but for the first time I used a crosscut blade (Tenryu) and my jaw dropped.
First of all, it is incredibly quiet. I have felt Hammer is bit noisier than typical cabinet saws, probably because the blade speed is significantly faster, but the crosscut blade is soooo quiet.
Then the resistance for the cutting is so low, cutting so quiet and smooth, that with the motion of the sliding table, I almost have too little tactile feedback about when the cut starts and ends.
I wonder if this is what we expect from a dedicated blade or something special about the Tenryu blade. Anyway, I wonder what is your experience with good crosscut blades?
Now I feel like I don't want to use any other blades anymore, finding myself sending rips to a bandsaw.....
