No problem with mine, been using porcelain today. Of course it will depend on the quality of the tile as to how it cuts. | ||

well hillhead, we use marcrist blades all the time theyre without doubt the best around(IMO), i've tried s#itloads of blades but marcrist does everything ya need it to, got 1 for 4'' and 9''. the only 1 thing is that they bend a bit more easily than some others cos of how thin they are, but not from cuttin its usually when the sigma's thrown in on top of them, dont know wher ya'd get them round your way though. | ||||||||||
