To choose the right diamond saw blade, consider:
1. The material being cut, like stone, granite or concrete
2. Whether cutting will be wet or dry
3. The height of the diamond segments on the blade
Factors like blade cost, the cutting power of the saw, and how well the blade matches the material also impact performance. For large projects, a higher quality blade may have lower overall costs despite the initial higher price.How To Choose The Perfect Diamond

Beauty is defined by the five C's - color, cut, clarity, carat, and certification. Durability depends on a stone's hardness, cleavage, brittleness, toughness, and resistance to heat, pressure, and chemicals.

Diamond is a naturally occurring pure carbon crystal that is exceptionally hard and durable compared to most gemstones. Gemstones are also mineral crystals that are cut and polished for use in jewelry. When assessing durability, diamond is unmatched due to its extreme hardness and stability against damage or deterioration. While most diamonds are colorless, colored diamonds can be found and are more rare and valuable. Gemstones also come in a variety of colors and some treatments are used to enhance their hues, though the effects may fade over time.
