I have used it. It is very hard and pretty. You need to put packaging tape on both sides to help reduce burning of the blade. Yes - reverse-tooth blades would be desirable. Also - please wear a mask. While it smells almost sweet (somewhat like coconut!) it is very toxic, as are most hardwoods. Please respect that and wear a mask while cutting.
