25
Had a brand new miter saw blade shatter on me yesterday
I was cutting some 2x4 pressure treated for a deck frame, nothing crazy, just a standard 45. Heard this awful bang and saw teeth flying across the garage. The blade just exploded, man. I mean, I've had blades get dull or chip, but this was a total failure. It was a Diablo 80 tooth I'd only had for maybe three weeks. Cleaned up the mess and had to run to the hardware store to finish the job, which put me two hours behind. Has anyone else had a new blade just give out like that? Wondering if it was a bad batch or something.

That's scary, glad you weren't hurt. Diablo blades are usually solid, so that definitely sounds like a factory defect. You should contact their customer service with the lot number.
