Hook angle affects how aggressively the blade feeds into the material. Negative hook angles (e.g., -5° as seen on the AGE Series MD12-726TB) are safer and help prevent the blade from grabbing, making them ideal for miter and sliding compound saws. This design pushes material downward and towards the fence, resulting in cleaner, more controlled cuts. With multiple blades offering a -5° hook angle, you can choose the right level of safety and control for your specific saw and application.
