Hi Guys,

I need to replace some of my blades. I need a 1/4" and a 3/8" X 105" blade. My searches come up with Dewalt and Bosch. What's a good blade that won't break the bank? Best place to buy. My larger blade is a 1/2" wood slicer from Highland. I've had it for 15 years. I don't use it much. I never bought any of their other blades. I use it to cut circles and thin slices. It's been a long time since I bought any.

Thanks

Mike

My last batch of blades came from Grizzly. They have a store in our state which I like. I bet there is a good source near you.

I have some from these guys too.

I recommend Olsen blades they have a good selection that varies in price. MVP or pro series
Even the regular flex back are very good for the price.
Good Luck

I use Timberwolf blades and have been pleased with their cutting and blade life. A single 3/8" x 105" blade runs about $31 depending on tooth count (https://www.amazon.com/Wood-Timber-Wolf-band-blade/dp/B01LVUPUZZ/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=Timber+Wolf+Bandsaw+Blade+3%2F 8%22+x+105%22&qid=1675990535&s=power-hand-tools&sr=1-4). A single 1/4" x 105" blade runs about $31 depending on tooth count (https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Timber+Wolf+Bandsaw+Blade+1%2F4%22+x+105%22&rh=n%3A328182011&ref=nb_sb_noss).

You can probably beat those prices by buying a 3 blade package direct from Timberwolf.

What price breaks the bank for you?

For a bandsaw blade no more than $50 - $60 bucks.

I got mine from Klingspor. I got Timberwolf's. They beat my local Woodcrafters even when paying for shipping. They due flat rate no matter how big the order is. I also get my sanding supplies from them. Jim
