I'm trying to find a saw blade that I can use in my 4 1/2" angle
grinder to trim my door jams for the tile that I am laying.

Is it possible that YOU have tried this and would have a link to a
place that carries the blade?

In checking McMaster, Harbor freight and Northern I have not found one.

Also, about how high above the tile should I trim the jam? (I'm using
ceramic tiles on a concrete slab)

Thanks.

They are made. Last time I bought one about $20. Try looking for a local
floor-covering wholesaler. I can provide you with a local place that might
ship it to you but you are looking at wait time and extra cost.

Why not just rent a power jamb saw? That way you can get a clean, straight
cut.

Instead of taking a chance of injuring yourself using the wrong tool,
how about a hand held saw made for the purpose. Takes about 1 or 2
minutes per jamb. Available at HD or Lowes.

I have a floor installer friend who was using an angle grinder
with a toothed saw blade to do just what you propose.

He lost permanent use of one thumb and had over 100 stitches and
was off work for over 6 months. He told me he had done the same
thing lots of times before.

I agree with others. A hand saw on a scrap of the new flooring or
a dedicated saw with the proper guards!!!

Carpenter for over 40 years - lots of scars, but I do still have
all ten.

Well, I gave up on this idea and used the hand saw that is made for the
job.

Its not as difficult as I had thought and, when I hit a nail, I picked
up my hacksaw to finish the cut.

I don't know about grinders, but there is a hand saw made for that. It has
an offset handle, cost about $10
