Default Saw blade question

I have a Steel Pro 10", 48T saw blade, part #72811. The box says it's for
cutting steel & ferrous metals. I've looked up on the net, and found this
is indeed what the blade is used for. I had gotten a deal at a garage sale
some years ago, and bought 2 of these blades, unused, in the boxes for $10.
I couldn't pass this up!

Now for my question. I plan on installing some laminate flooring, which has
aluminum oxide in it. Would this blade be a good one for cutting the
laminate?


It'd work, but you rarely need the best blade/cut for laminate as the
cut ends are hidden. The amount of aluminum oxide in the finish on
your prefinished flooring is minimal. You certainly won't notice the
increased wear on the blade.
