Hi Christan and all,

The CBN meteorite blades (for iron meteorites) worked well in the 
beginning but I have tried them off and on over the last few years and 
they wear out super quick. My set-up for cutting has remained the same, 
same saw and process but I used to get quite a few slices before wearing 
out the blade. I have literally worn out a blade in a minute or two due 
to the bad bonding of cutting material on the saw. I have even felt the 
blade and parts are still sharp where other sections (usually large) are 
smooth and worn or fallen off. If you buy some of those types just order 
a couple so you don't waste your money.

Not good for stony material as it leaves far too much kerfing. A thin 
diamond saw is best. Good luck and hope you find a reliable source for 
your cutting. All my best!
