Pick up a new CMT blade for your TS55 for under $20.

I noticed the factory blade on my TS55 is getting dull.  I'm not sure if people send them off for resharpening, how many times you can do this, etc., but am curious ... is the CMT blade a good replacement?

I looked late last night, it looked like the CMT blades are the thinner blades for the new saws introduced this year?  Will the thinner blades work on the older saws?

Sort of.  The factory riving knife on the TS55 might need to be removed or replaced.

It is a great relief to my pocketbook that Festool has not, as of yet, started the Black Friday sale on Recon.

...which is a bit surprising, considering how active they've been with Recon recently.

  @jeffinsgf   Anything from Woodpecker's for Black Friday or Cyber Monday?

I know I'm not Jeff, but there were no BF/CM deals mentioned or listed among the myriad e-mails I've received from Woodpecker's recently.

I bought a couple of these from Routerbit World for my older TS 75, working well so far, no issues with the riving knife.

Can’t beat the price.
