Freud LU84M009 9" Combination Blade — the one-blade solution designed for woodworkers who demand seamless transitions between ripping and crosscutting without swapping blades. Built by Freud/Diablo, this blade brings precision and practicality to every cut.

• Hybrid tooth geometry for versatile cutting: a single flat tooth at the start for aggressive ripping, followed by four alternate top bevel teeth for clean crosscuts. The result is a single blade that handles both tasks with consistent edge quality.
• Efficient chip management: a large gullet clears chips quickly, reducing heat buildup and minimizing binding when working with dense woods, plywood, or composite panels.
• Laser-cut anti-vibration slots: engineered to dampen blade chatter, delivering straighter cuts, smoother traction, and reduced noise. With this blade, there’s no need for stabilizers.
• One blade, multiple applications: ideal for cabinetmaking, shelving, framing, and general woodworking projects where you’d normally switch blades—ripping sheets of wood, then finishing with precise crosscuts in the same job.
• Long-term reliability: designed to maintain sharpness and accuracy across material types, helping you achieve cleaner edges and tighter tolerances over time.

Who benefits most? Professional woodworkers, carpenters, and serious hobbyists who value efficiency and predictable results across a range of materials—including softwoods, hardwoods, plywood, and MDF—in a single, convenient blade. This is the LU84M009 you reach for when you want bridge-cut performance without the hassle of blade changes.

Practical tips for best results: pair this blade with steady feed rates to maximize the effectiveness of the crosscut teeth, keep the blade clean to maintain the chip clearance, and ensure your saw is properly aligned to leverage the anti-vibration design for the smoothest possible cut.
