Just last week we got an Evolution Rage 2, I think that is what it is, from our local Ace Hardware. It has a carbide tipped saw blade, similar to a wood cutting blade, and it is doing a fantastic job so far. We are building a project which will have hundreds of cuts and our old chop saw, 25-30 years old (grey and orange Makita!!) probably wasn't going to be able to handle it. Seems to make a nicer cut than the abrasive blades and you can make a trim cut of 1/16 or 1/8" and still get a straight cut. We are cutting 3 1/2" X 1/2 flat steel and 3" round tubing (1/4" wall maybe), and it seems to be going through it quite well. Probably have made a couple hundred cuts, and the blade seems to be holding up well. The blade is supposed to last 14 times longer than the abrasive wheel on an ordinary chop saw. I doubt if the saw will be going in 30 more years like the Makita did though. At least I won't be using it in 30 years anyway!
