Pros & Cons
Pros
i absolutely hate dealing with dado shims and the time wasted in sizing & swapping them but this adjustable set is a game changer. A full-kerf blade is only nominally 1/8 inch, but in reality the kerf can be somewhat wider or less wide. The dial f... Read More
Insanely sharp and terrifying to use the first couple times. While it does cost a bit, i firmly believe in you get what you pay for.
Cons
case is flimsy and cracks easily. Metal shims are corroded. I know how to use dado blades, so this negative review is not the result of not knowing what i'm doing.
Timberline is not compatible with the saw i purchased. Will need to modify the arbor lock block by removing 1/8 off of it to get clearance. Literally ran out of room for the locking nut on the arbors. Do not buy this blade if you have a sawstop - it i... Read More
Great idea but needs redesign or clearly indicate its limitations. Block looks to be difficult to remove to grind down too.
This rating is for mail order version of this product. After talking with freud, the only solution is to return the dado set for a refund.
Highlights
Quality

Returned and went with the oshlun 8 for half the price.
Price
This 8” dado set is so worth the money it costs.
Shipping
They did shift around in the box during shipping.
They shipped in a plastic shipping bag.
Packaging/appearance

Delivery is very shorteverything on the saw dado blade is perfectbut inside the packaging is too weak
It's true the packaging is lacking, i was aware of this fact from previous reviews and inspected the blades for damage immediat... Read More
For a established company like frued to charge you this much for this set and then ship these blades in the crappiest packaging... Read More
Competitiveness
I love this dado set and use it with my sawstop table saw.
Aside from the horrible packaging, which others have repeatedly brought up, i expected a 5-star worthy cut for the premium price.

First one shipped had damage to every blade

There was no packaging around the blade case to keep the blade case from flopping around inside the box

Fortuitously nothing was broken in the case and all blades were ok

I saw the reviews dating back to 2015 complaining about the case

The only reason i cannot give a full 5star is because the blades and chippers refused to come out once i inserted in my saw arbor

Unfortunately the storage case is garbage
