new blade for norton

[davharv]

After finishing tiling my bathroom the blade that came with my new norton tt200em is spent. I wondered if anyone could advise me on buying a decent all around blade that would cut all the tough stuff. I know you pay for what you get but i don't want to pay crazy money
thanks

the marcrist blades are reasonably priced and are decent quality

Have you tried Trade Tiler at:
Tradetiler Tilers 200mm (8") Wheels

the marcrist or Rubi CPC2 are about £70

What were you cutting???
I have had a norton for over 7 years, and am on my second blade.

I was cutting large porcelain tiles. Towards the end of the job the tiles became hard to cut and started to lift. Not sure if this was blunting or the blade was clogged not sure if the blade can be dressed.
