Has anyone used "SuperCut" band saw blades (see amazon link below). They are supposedly carbide.. I have a 10" Craftsman bandsaw, and am deciding whether to purchase the blade for $37.50..

""The teeth are impregnated with carbide particles, making this a very durable blade which retains its sharpness even resawing the hardest and toughest woods. This blade is especially designed for resawing wood, particularly the hardwoods and other difficult to cut wood species. The narrow kerf conserves these expensive woods, giving you more yield from a block of lumber while the hard, sharp, carbide impregnated teeth maintain their sharpness and set.""

I've never used one. But "carbide-impregated" is not "carbide".

I've used one of these on my 14" bandsaw. It worked well and seemed to hold up a little longer than regular blades. As previously mentioned, it does not have true carbide teeth.
