This blade is highly recommended, but my experince does not vouch for them I´m afraid.
I bought the Monolit and paid 160 pounds to cut Porcelain and it was not as good as the DeWalt blade. Made extensive tests to compare and my view is made up.

I guess it depends what you want to cut. If ceramics or stone, I can see it would be a good strong blade and do the job.
For fine Porcelain cuts, look at the DeWalt or perhaps Rubi.

As I say about experience ........ based on mistakes.
BTW, the DeWalt DT3734 was 45 pounds!
You have to ask is it worth spending three times the amount

DeWalt 2400.

The Monolit is a strong blade and rips well, but please remember my views are based on Porcelain tiles I am working with.

I am not saying the blade is no good, just not what I needed. I wanted good clean cuts and the Monolit couldnt do it as well as the DeWalt.

I guess it depends on what you are using it on.
