I have a few Leitz rip blades and love them. ? However, I have standardized on Tenryu blades for use with the scoring saw. ? Specifically, I use the Tenryu?IW-350100AB3 which is 350mm, and too large for a K700, so you’d want the 300mm variant - IW300100AB3. ? I have about 5 identical Tenryu blades and just rotate them out for sharpening as required. ? Standardizing on a single blade type means you don’t have to change the scoring saw blade cut width when you swap out blades. ? I recently bought a new scoring blade from Freud Industrial and returned it because it was garbage. ? I recommend you buy your scoring saw blade from Felder.

Having said all that, I use Leitz exclusively for sharpening all my blades.? They have been the most consistent and convenient and will sharpen any brand of blade.? I had Leitz re-grind two of the mentioned Tenryu blades to flat-top instead of alternating-top-bevel so they cut a flat bottomed kerf for joinery applications. ? In my area (Portland Oregon) Leitz has a roving rep who comes down from Seattle every week and will come to my shop to pick up and deliver blades being sharpened at no extra cost. ? ?Even if I had to ship them UPS to Leitz for sharpening, I would do so to get their service.

Hello all, I have a new K700S due to arrive next week to my shop. I need to get some blades for it. I got a recommendation to check into Leitz blades from a guy who has a lifetime of experience and who's opinion I trust. Reasonable initial cost, good performance and Leitz 's reputation for being able to consistently re sharpen their blades to a high standard all appeals to me. It seems like a good value. I plan on building kitchen cabinets. (Plywood boxes, hardwood face frames and doors drawer fronts, etc.) I guess I'll need a main blade and a scoring blade to handle hardwood veneered plywoods, probably a combination blade, a crosscut blade?,a rip blade?,and any other suggestions anyone may have. (The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.) The saw has a 7.5 hp,5.5kw,3ph main motor. 4800 rpm. 30 mm arbor with lugs. Blade can be 250mm-315mm in diameter. The electronic scoring unit has 20mm arbor and the manual says the blade can be 100 mm maximum in diameter* (*when used with a 300 mm main blade) I don't understand what difference the size of the main blade makes since they are adjusted independently of each other, but that is what the manual says. I called Leitz. The sales guy was friendly, but I knew I was in trouble when he said he had never heard of Felder. He said he'd only been there 6 months and was still learning. Their websites does show blades for a number of different saw manufacturers and Felder is not one of them. He was not able to locate a small enough scoring blade for the K700S and seemed pretty unsure of himself on everything else. Do any of you guys use Leitz blades on your Felder equipment? If so do you have any specific recommendations? I am open to other blade manufacturers too, not just Leitz. The great re sharpening reputation Leitz has is very appealing though. Thanks everyone, I appreciate this website a great deal. George Gerstner, Ostrander,Ohio
