Spent $45 on a diamond blade for my grinder and it still lasted longer than 4 cheap ones combined
I used to buy those $12 blades at the hardware store and swap them out every other job. Finally grabbed a decent one from a masonry supplier six months ago and it's still cutting clean. The cheap blades would glaze over on hard brick after a few hundred cuts. Anyone else notice a big difference with nicer blades or am I just unlucky with the budget stuff?

Wait, are you saying you keep the cheap blades wet during the whole cut or just spray them down between cuts? I tried keeping a cheap blade wet once and it still wore down in like 20 minutes on some hard concrete pavers, then started throwing sparks like crazy. The glaze on cheap blades always builds up on me no matter what I do, maybe it depends on what kind of brick you're cutting.
