Think about it. If a Golden Eagle ,. blade lasts 2 to 5 times

longer, under tough industrial field conditions, why would

anyone cut with anything else?

DRIVEWAY

with Golden Eagle saw blades you not only cut more, you

get a cut that is visibly smoother. Dyanite" carbide is

resharpenable and cuts more hardwood.

ALARM

anytime someone approaches the house. Never

miss a visitor while your working on a project.
