I have used three of these blades before. The price is good. I cut thick "green" wood, so that's a lot of work for this blade. My bandsaw is a 16 inch Delta three wheel saw which puts extra stress on the blades due to the small drive wheels. This blade performs better than some of the more expensive blades in terms of not breaking too early. They don't stay sharp. Takes a long time to cut thick green wood but I have no comparison as other blades break before they dull. Overall I'm satisfied and will continue to buy.
