I'm on the hunt for some budget-friendly table saw blades. Are there any brands that you all recommend that won't break the bank but still offer decent quality?

Check out Diablo blades! They're pretty decent quality and sold at most big box stores at a moderate price. I've had good luck with them, especially as a hobbyist; they last quite a while with just some occasional cleaning.
Freud blades are an amazing value! They're well made and you'd definitely feel the difference. Just a tip: while Freud and CMT are both solid options, remember that investing a bit more initially can really pay off in the long run. 'Buy it nice or buy it twice!'
Thanks for that advice! I’m just starting out and learning everything from YouTube and Reddit. I’ve been battling my 'I need it now!' impulse!

How do you usually clean them?
