Happened to order this from Amazon and they had a 20% off promo sale
going so the total cost was $65.38. Since I have the prime there
isn't a shipping cost. Anyone considerding such a purchase might want
to look.

What is the advantage of the Box Joint blade over the dado stack? Less than
$5.00 in price.

Two differences... They're actually the width they advertise and
they cut a flat bottom dado.

Flat bottoms.
And if you are like me with a Ridge Dado, 1/4" ain't 1/4".. when I put
my two outside blades together, I get 9/32... Fng BS

Everyone else pretty much covered it. It's main attraction to me was
the flat bottom. Unfortunately my Dado set was more then a $5
difference. I was willing to pay more to get the Frued adjustable
dado set for it's convenience.

The Freud box joint blades do what you expect them to do in the sizes
you expect and probably form here on out for a hobbyist.
You might compare the advantage of a box of 100 square drive screws from
McFeeley's for $6 to of the screws sold at the big box in the plastic
bags, 8 pcs for 89 cents. Actually McFeeley's is most often less
expensive for a far superior product.
