If it's new, probably.


I found a better deal on eBay. New, $38, free shipping. Ordered

One caveat I forgot to mention, though.
I used blade stabilizers, as I do with any thin kerf blade.


Any suggestions on what to buy?


I've got an old set of Dewalt stabilizers that I don't like.

Are they going to screw up my zero clearance inserts by moving the blade?


It might widen it a smidgen.


Clarification:
If the blade stiffener is 1/8" and the Irwin is 3/32" then
the afore mentioned "smidgen" = ~ 3/32" wider.

Another consideration when switching to a thin kerf:
