German cutting tool manufacturer Guhdo has introduced the Gmaxx line of saw blades with advanced technology in both their coatings and grindings. The electrostatically applied coating is thin, strong and uniform over the body of the blade. It reduces friction and protects against rust and resin buildup. It's also an earth-friendly coating with no harmful chemicals, and the blades can be easily cleaned with water and detergent. The proprietary grinding process is meant to create precision-balanced blade bodies. The Gmaxx blades, which also include noise reduction slots, are available in a variety of specifications, ranging from 7-1/4" to 14" diameter, with prices starting in the $40 range and going up to about $95.
