Bad blade breaks easily

I bought 3 of these cutting 1/8" plywood, blade broke, another broke another, it works Bosch Braden proved it doesn't last at all

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

good blade suitable for band saws

Great blade! I used to expect high quality from Bosch products and this knife is no exception. It does everything the manufacturer says and a lot that they don't mention. I will buy Bosch every time I have the choice. Lewis K

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not the best

Not what I expect from Bosch

I don't think a 1/8" blade will last as long as a wider blade, but these blades are not up to standard. I used six blades to carve 200 Christmas angels (7 inches high). Everything was broken by welding. Most of the welds had visible imperfections and made a ticking noise each time they passed the guides.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Perfect match for my little Delta trike

It's just the start of sawdust season and my little band saw blade is breaking. I ordered two based on my experience with these things and they arrived the next day! Great fit, good quality and super fast shipping. I will definitely come again. Oh, and they fit perfectly on my Delta tricycle saw.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Updates available

They're fragile

If they don't break, they cut great. Buy a few. Some of them last a while, others break very quickly. I use them in a delta bench band saw and have a lot of experience. I went through three of them to carve wood for two Adirondack chairs. Great cut, bad hold.

Pros
  • Power tool parts and accessories
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Cons
  • Can't remember

Bait and Switches

Why does Revain include other sizes in the mix when a specific size is requested. I wanted and requested "56 7/8 band saw" and among the saw blades shown was 56 1/8" saw blades. Now I should have checked the screen before ordering, my fault but why add other sizes when details If you see 56 1/8 it looks like 56 7/8 my older eyes didn't notice them back and wait another week for a new blade but that's ridiculous.

Pros
  • Saws, Parts and Accessories
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
