Yep the good old "depends" .
Since my favorite wood is Cherry - I suppose the best practice would be to continue on using my Glue Line Rip blades - until they dull and begin burning.
I do believe I'll also invest in a decent combination blade. (I'll start a new thread for that one since it's been some time since there's been a thread about that)
My granddad always said, :As one door closes, another opens".
Wonderful man, terrible cabinet maker...
