Commercially, we use a triple chip blade. The current blade is almost 10
years old and leaves a mirror finish on the aluminum cut.

Hey OM
If a twin blade 6.25 inch blade cuts like a 14 inch blade what's a
triple blade cut like?

And can you shave your face with that mirror?
That would make one heck of a disco ceiling mirror ball.

Twin blade is lifetime gaurantee.

It is a single blade- and the triple chip refers to the rake of individual
teeth. I think every aluminum house uses a triple chip blade. Not cheap at
$150 or so- but as I said, one of our blades is around 10 years old, is used
daily and still cuts with a mirror finish.
