The blade to reach for when the wood might be full of nails and you want it to last more than one teardown.
Pros
- Carbide teeth survive hidden nails and screws that instantly kill bi-metal blades
- Perma-Shield coating cuts gumming when ripping through wet or resinous framing lumber
- Manufacturer rates it up to ~50x the life of a standard bi-metal demo blade in nail-embedded wood
Cons
- Costs several times more per blade than plain bi-metal, so it is overkill for clean lumber
- 5/7 TPI leaves a rough, splintery edge unsuited to any finish cut
- Carbide tips can chip if you twist or pry the blade in a bind
