Thanks.

I personally use Forrest blades, Brian, and buy them from Silver's Mill for about the best price going. Sale prices that come are even better.

The most expensive tool is the one you buy "cheaply" and often...
I have a Forrest WWII, and it's a very nice blade. I recently bought three Amana blades (rip, general purpose, and crosscut), and they are very nice blades. Very clean cuts. They are a little less expensive than a Forrest blade.
I bought two Infinity blades shortly after getting my PCS. They were full kerf 50 tooth and 24 tooth ripper. I was pretty disappointed in them but my saw is only 1.75 hp and that was undoubtedly part of the reason for my difficulties. But a freud full kerf ripper definitely worked better than the Infinity.
So I do not have a high opinion of infinity blades. If I used different blades and/or a different saw I might well think differently. But I have always had good results using Freud blades. I have a thin kerf Fusion 40 tooth blade on my PCS right now. It will do rips the 24 tooth Infinity blade would not. It's a nice all around blade IMHO. It does cross cuts well also. I haven't taken it off the saw since I put it on. I have a thin kerf 50 tooth I was planning to be my main blade but the fusion is working so well it has not gotten installed. I also have a thin kerf 24 tooth ripper I haven't put on due to good results with the fusion. All are Freud. Bang for the buck, I have not found better.
I have very good results with Freud Blades. I have a crosscut, a glue line rip and a combo that all do a great job.
thanks everyone.

I use Oshlun and have been extremely happy with them.
I use the 10 inch 40 tooth Ridge carbide Super Blade with great results.

I use a lot of CMT blades a s router bits. I have a Forrest WWII it small it’s cracked up to be but the
CMT cut quality is just as good durability is the thing with Forrest
I really like my Freud LU73M. Cut quality and durability are excellent.
