Hi Jim, Most any fine or medium tooth sabre saw blade will cut Homasote just fine. Just remember the finer the tooth the smoother the cut. A variable speed scrolling sabre saw is a big advantage. <br /> <br />The question orginally posed way back when was how to cut Homasote without creating that anoying grey dust. A knife edge blade like the one previously mentioned will do the trick although it is just a bit slower. The trick to that is to use an industrial quality blade like the one I mentioned and find a speed where it does not overheat. If the dust isn't a problem just go with a good quality fine or medium tooth blade. <br />Take Care and Have Fun...Vic
